Interlux Paint 5590BG ACT Ablative Antifouling Bottom Paint Bottle Green

Interlux ACT 5590BG is a single-season ablative antifouling bottom paint formulated with high copper content and Slime Fighter technology for comprehensive marine fouling protection. Using Ablative Copolymer Technology, this bottom paint slowly wears away with use, continually exposing fresh biocide at the surface to prevent marine growth while eliminating heavy paint build-up and the aggressive sanding required by traditional hard bottom paints.

Key Features:

• High copper content formula controls hard growth including barnacles and zebra mussels
• Integrated Slime Fighter additive effectively controls soft growth such as weed, slime, and algae
• Ablative technology provides controlled erosion for season-to-season protection
• Eliminates paint build-up and reduces maintenance between seasons
• Effective in moderate to heavy fouling conditions
• Versatile application for fresh, salt, and brackish water environments
• Coverage: approximately 430 square feet per gallon

Application Information:

• Suitable for fiberglass, wood, and properly primed metal hulls (not for aluminum)
• Can be applied by brush, roller, or spray
• Minimum application temperature: 50°F (10°C)
• Compatible with Special Thinner 216 or Brush-Ease 433 if thinning is required

This Bottle Green color provides excellent season-to-season protection for powerboats and sailboats operating in waters with moderate to heavy fouling. The self-polishing ablative formula maintains effectiveness throughout the season while keeping hulls cleaner longer.
