Manufacturer

Interlux Paint

<p>Since 1881, Interlux has established itself as one of the world's leading manufacturers of high-performance marine coatings and yacht finishes. As a division of AkzoNobel, Interlux combines over a century of expertise with cutting-edge coating technology to deliver protection and beauty for vessels of all sizes, from recreational powerboats to racing sailboats and luxury yachts.</p><h3>Marine Coating Excellence</h3><p>Interlux's reputation is built on formulating specialized solutions that address the unique challenges of the marine environment. Unlike automotive or general-purpose coatings, marine paints must withstand constant exposure to UV radiation, saltwater, temperature fluctuations, and the physical stresses of wave action. Every product in the Interlux lineup is engineered specifically for marine applications, ensuring vessels receive the protection they need while maintaining a brilliant, professional appearance.</p><h3>Comprehensive Protection Systems</h3><p>The Interlux product range covers every aspect of vessel maintenance and refinishing. Their <a href="/7399-interlux-paint-wood-finishes-varnish-201205">wood finishes and varnishes</a> preserve and enhance natural teak and other marine woods with UV-resistant formulations that withstand harsh sun exposure. For hull and deck applications, <a href="/7399-interlux-paint-interlux-topside-paint-200585">topside paints</a> deliver durable, high-gloss finishes that resist chalking and fading season after season.</p><p>Below the waterline, protection becomes even more critical. <a href="/7399-interlux-paint-interlux-antifouling-paint-200583">Antifouling paints</a> prevent the growth of barnacles, weeds, and slime that can degrade hull performance and increase fuel consumption. For competitive sailors, <a href="/7399-interlux-paint-interlux-racing-bottom-paint-200584">racing bottom paints</a> are formulated to maintain smooth, low-friction surfaces that maximize speed through the water.</p><p>Proper surface preparation is essential for long-lasting results, which is why Interlux offers a complete line of <a href="/7399-interlux-paint-primers-sealers-200811">primers and sealers</a> that ensure optimal adhesion, prevent corrosion, and create the ideal foundation for topcoats. These barrier coats and anti-corrosive primers are critical for protecting fiberglass, wood, and metal surfaces from water absorption and galvanic corrosion.</p><h3>Innovation and Performance</h3><p>Interlux continues to advance marine coating technology with innovative formulations. Products like Brightside polyurethane enamel and two-part Perfection paint deliver durable, high-gloss finishes, while ablative bottom paints use self-polishing technology that continuously renews the active surface. Whether refinishing a classic wooden yacht or maintaining a modern performance cruiser, Interlux provides the coating solutions that professional boatyards and knowledgeable boat owners trust for exceptional results.</p>

Product Details

Interlux ACT (Advanced Composite Technology) is a proven ablative antifouling bottom paint that delivers reliable season-to-season protection for boats in moderate to heavy fouling conditions. This self-polishing coating uses advanced ablative technology that wears away gradually during use, exposing fresh biocide throughout the season while preventing paint buildup over time.

Key Features:

  • Ablative technology continuously exposes fresh antifouling surface as paint wears away
  • Eliminates the need for sanding between coats—no paint buildup over multiple seasons
  • Provides consistent antifouling performance in moderate to heavy fouling environments
  • Compatible with most existing antifouling paints for easy overcoating
  • Self-polishing action maintains smooth hull surface for better performance
  • Trusted formulation used by boaters and boatyards worldwide
  • Brown color in gallon containers, 2 gallons per case

Ideal for powerboats and sailboats that need reliable antifouling protection without the hassle of extensive surface preparation between seasons. The ablative formula makes ACT an excellent choice for boats that are hauled and relaunched, as the paint remains active even when out of the water.

Great experience

Best price I found on a web..was in stock and received on time within the week..

Great website, very simple and easy to use. Customer service was great and could not beat a better price on product. Was given an e-mail every step of the way. Would recommend!8

so far...quick/easy and very nice. lets see about shipping time and returns (if necessary)....???

overall i was very pleased with the way this site compares to all others, but there is one disappointing aspect. There is no detail on part placement when the parts are listed before you click on them for more info, very frustrating in terms of user frien

Very easy and website was quick to let me know if a part would or would not fit my car - very helpful.

Fast ship, great price. I will purchase merchandise from them again.

Excellent e-commerce interface

easy to locate what I was looking for, smooth transaction
