Seahawk Paints

<h3>Four Decades of Marine Coating Excellence</h3> <p>Sea Hawk Paints, established in 1978, has dedicated over four decades to bringing premium quality marine coating products to today's mariners. Manufactured by New Nautical Coatings, a Florida-based company with more than forty years of experience, all Sea Hawk marine coatings are carefully tested to comply with the strictest quality standards. The family-owned and operated company maintains a commitment to excellence that has made them one of the most trusted names in boat maintenance and protection.</p> <p>What sets Sea Hawk apart is their comprehensive approach to marine protection. Each product undergoes rigorous testing before leaving their facility, ensuring that every gallon meets exacting specifications. From weekend sailors to professional yacht maintenance crews, boaters choose Sea Hawk because their formulations deliver consistent results in diverse marine environments—whether facing the harsh fouling conditions of tropical waters or the more moderate challenges of northern harbors.</p> <h3>Industry-Leading Antifouling Technology</h3> <p>At the heart of Sea Hawk's product line lies their exceptional <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-sea-hawk-antifouling-paint-200905">antifouling paint</a> collection. Their bottom paint offerings include traditional copper-based hard epoxy and ablative formulations, as well as copper-free and low VOC, water-based bottom paints that leave a softer environmental footprint and meet various government regulations. The company's ablative coatings are engineered to wear away at a controlled rate through water friction, releasing biocides gradually while minimizing the need for sanding during haul-out—a significant time-saver for boat owners.</p> <p>Their biocide-free Smart Solution bottom paint utilizes slick-forming technology to increase speed and prevent marine growth through natural water friction, representing the next generation of environmentally conscious antifouling solutions. For those facing severe marine growth challenges, Sea Hawk's hard epoxy formulations deliver aggressive protection with high copper content specifically designed for warm water applications.</p> <h3>Specialized Coatings for Every Need</h3> <p>Beyond bottom paints, Sea Hawk has developed specialized solutions for specific marine applications. Their <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-sea-hawk-aluminum-boat-paint-200904">aluminum boat paint</a> products are formulated to safely protect aluminum hulls without the corrosion concerns associated with traditional copper-based paints. This copper-free technology provides critical protection for trailered boats and aluminum vessels that require different chemical considerations than fiberglass hulls.</p> <p>The company's <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-primers-200810">primers</a> serve as essential foundation layers for any marine coating system. Sea Hawk primers and epoxy coatings are used to promote adhesion, seal out water and protect against corrosion. Their Tuff Stuff epoxy primer line, available in both standard and low-VOC formulations, provides high-build coverage suitable for steel, fiberglass, and properly prepared aluminum substrates. These primers create the barrier protection necessary for long-lasting antifouling performance.</p> <p>For boat owners preparing surfaces, Sea Hawk offers professional-grade <a href="/7551-seahawk-paints-dewaxers-strippers-200315">dewaxers and strippers</a> designed to remove mold release wax from new gelcoat and strip old coatings efficiently. Proper surface preparation is critical for paint adhesion, and these specialty chemicals ensure that subsequent coating layers bond correctly for maximum durability and performance.</p> <h3>Innovation Rooted in Research</h3> <p>Sea Hawk's commitment to advancement extends beyond their current product catalog. The company maintains an active research and development program, with hundreds of new formulations under testing at any given time. This dedication to innovation ensures that Sea Hawk remains at the forefront of marine coating technology, developing solutions that balance environmental responsibility with vessel performance requirements.</p> <p>Whether you're maintaining a small fishing boat, protecting a luxury yacht, or managing a fleet of commercial vessels, Sea Hawk Paints provides application-specific solutions backed by decades of marine coating expertise and a reputation built on quality, performance, and customer satisfaction.</p>

Product Details

Seahawk Smart Solution is the most advanced antifouling technology available today, offering equivalent performance to traditional antifoulants while utilizing completely metal-free biocides resulting in no bio-accumulation in the environment. This innovative technology is combined with a pharmaceutical grade biocide, ECONEA (Tralopyril), to control hard growth.

Within days, the coating creates a living surface much like the mucoprotein protective slime coat that covers the scales and skin of a fish. Reaction to salt water creates a slick film that encapsulates the hull, providing enhanced speed and antifouling protection. This slick film also allows any soft growth to be easily cleaned off with just a garden hose or gentle underwater scrubbing to leave a smooth foul-free surface.

Key Features:

  • Ablative/self-polishing co-polymer technology slowly wears away with use
  • One or more seasons of protection against fouling
  • Metal-free bottom paint - can be used on properly primed aluminum and steel hulls
  • Compatible over existing antifoulants
  • Lloyd's Registry certified
  • Application: brush, 3/8" nap solvent-resistant roller, airless or conventional spray
  • Theoretical coverage is 288 ft²/gallon; 3 coats recommended; 63% solids by volume

Black color formula has a shipping weight of 10.46 lbs per gallon with a semi-gloss finish and typical shelf life of 2-3 years. Formulated specifically for saltwater applications.
