Comments about Zinc Coat Barnacle Barrier:
My fellow boating friend and I first used this product before launcing our boats in the spring on 2011 (Cheasapeake Bay). We sprayed all over all below waterline metals. We just pulled boats for winter storage in Dec 2011 and had virtually no barnacles on any metal surface. It worked very well. Highly recommend it.

Comments about Zinc Coat Barnacle Barrier:
Easy to use and does exactly what it claims. Applied to all underwater gear (props, shafts, rudders, trim tabs). One full year in the water. Pulled boat to clean the bottom and gear in January and found that all the gear was growth and barnacle free! It just needs a light rough up and recoat for this year! Fantastic!

Comments about Zinc Coat Barnacle Barrier:
I use to use epoxy bottom paint (copper) on underwater metal , rudders,struts ,tabs,ect..ect
and would get to many barnacals on the underwater gear. Have now used the Pettit Kopcaot Zinc spray
for several years and there is a big differance ,
the product has reduced the barnacle growth by approximatly 95% and cut the time to apply paint to the underwater gear by more than half....
