Firstly you need to find out if
Propshield is right for you and your vessel.
To find out ask yourself the following questions:
• Does my boat spend most of its time on its mooring making a home for
barnacles?
• Do my props and stern gear get coated in these creatures?
• Are my propellers green at the end of the season through electrolysis?
• Do I lose speed after only a few weeks after re launch?
• Is stern gear fouling costing me a fortune in wasted fuel and reduced
speed?
• Do I spend a fortune buying and
refurbishing new propellers?
If the answer to any of these questions is
yes...
then
Propshield is definitely the solution for you!
The
Power of Propshield
Photo 1 - WITHOUT PROPSHIELD Photo 2 - WITH PROPSHIELD
These
two propellers were used in the same very foul estuarial
waters where barnacle encrustations are at their worst. The
photos demonstrate how effective Propshield
is during normal use, especially where boats lie idle most
of the time. This is when
barnacles attack and your very expensive propellers simply
dissolve into the water
through leakage in shore power systems, even some pontoon
electrical systems
leak into the surrounding waters.
Photo 1 This propeller has had about seven months use
and hasn’t been treated with Propshield and shows a typical level of encrustation
attack and oxidised surface.
Photo 2 This propeller was coated with Propshield
and also had average use during
a seven month season. The result was startling; virtually no
barnacles in the working
area of the prop and it looked virtually the same as at the
beginning of the season.
The treated blade had 24 barnacles and we estimate that the
untreated blade had in
the order of 500 barnacles! |
