Seahawk Paints

<h3>About Seahawk Paints</h3><p>Since 1978, <strong>Seahawk Paints</strong> — manufactured by New Nautical Coatings, Inc. out of Clearwater, Florida — has built a reputation as one of the most trusted names in marine coatings. As an American-made, family-owned operation for over four decades, the brand has earned the loyalty of powerboat owners, sailors, and yacht enthusiasts who demand reliable, long-lasting protection on the water.</p><p>What sets Seahawk apart is its commitment to engineering purpose-built solutions for every marine coating challenge. Whether you're battling barnacle buildup in tropical harbors, managing hull maintenance on an aluminum fishing boat, or prepping a fiberglass sailboat hull for a new season, Seahawk has a product engineered for that exact condition. Every formula is developed with performance and ease of application in mind — so boaters spend more time on the water and less time at the dock.</p><h3>Antifouling & Bottom Paint</h3><p>Seahawk's core strength lies in its extensive lineup of antifouling paints. The range spans self-polishing copolymer ablative formulas that wear away cleanly without coating buildup, hard modified epoxy options for multi-season durability, and environmentally responsible low-VOC and copper-free alternatives. Specialty antifouling products cover transducers, inflatable boats, racing finishes, and underwater running gear — making Seahawk a genuinely comprehensive solution for hull protection.</p><h3>Specialty Coatings for Every Application</h3><p>Beyond standard bottom paints, Seahawk's <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-specialty-coating-paints-200986">specialty coatings and paints</a> address the full range of marine refinishing needs. From foul-release chemistry for propellers and running gear to repair-and-refinish products for fiberglass and gel coat work, these coatings are formulated to perform in the demanding marine environment where UV exposure, saltwater immersion, and mechanical wear are constant factors.</p><h3>Aluminum Boat Paint</h3><p>The flagship <em>Aluma Hawk</em> line stands out within Seahawk's aluminum boat paint category. This quick-dry, high-solids, corrosion-inhibiting coating is chromate-free and safe for use above or below the waterline. Thanks to its unique phenolic resin technology, Aluma Hawk can serve as both a primer and a topcoat in a single-step application — making it an ideal choice for pontoon boats, jon boats, and aluminum-hulled vessels of all kinds.</p><h3>Primers Built for Marine Conditions</h3><p>A quality topcoat is only as good as the foundation beneath it. Seahawk's <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-primers-200810">marine primers</a> cover a wide spectrum of preparation needs: hull prep for antifouling applications, blister prevention, and barrier coating systems for both fiberglass and metal substrates. For those needing a robust foundation solution, the <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-primers-undercoaters-200812">primers and undercoaters</a> category includes products like the Tuff Stuff epoxy primer — a high-build, fast-drying formula engineered for use over steel, fiberglass, and properly prepared aluminum. A low-VOC version is also available for compliance with strict regional air quality regulations.</p><p>Whether you're a weekend boater maintaining a trailered aluminum skiff or a professional yard manager servicing a fleet of ocean-going vessels, Seahawk Paints offers a coating solution that holds up where it matters most — below the waterline.</p>

Product Details

The Seahawk Paints C5-S2 Clear Finish Catalyst is designed for very clear fiberglass cloth and coating applications with exceptional moisture barrier characteristics, perfect for natural wood and carbon fiber clear coats with no blush. This catalyst is designed for use with Hawk Epoxy R1 Resin in construction and repairs for superior adhesion, strength, bonding, filling, and moisture barrier qualities.

Key Features:

  • Produces very clear fiberglass cloth and coating results with exceptional water barrier characteristics, ideal for clear-coating natural wood and carbon fiber finishes
  • May be used under Sea Hawk marine wood varnish
  • Features a good balance of adequate pot life and working time with a reasonably fast cure time
  • 3:1 mix ratio by volume with R1 Resin, 22-27 minute pot life at 77°F
  • Size 2 (0.33 gallon) - must be paired with corresponding Size 2 R1 Resin for proper ratio

The Hawk Epoxy C5 Clear Finish Catalyst can be used with Hawk Epoxy Resin for building or repairing planes, surfboards, canoes, boats, and many other substrates. Hawk Epoxy's color-coded sizing system ensures accuracy, and mix ratios vary depending on which catalyst is being used - be sure to choose the same size for both the resin and catalyst.
