Palmtree Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hi, I have used international antifoul in the past and it looks like Norfolk Marine wants about £90 for 2.5 litres, this antifoul is at Toolstation has anyone used it as it is almost a third of the price http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Paintin ... 261/p37205 Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBA Marine Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Go to marine & Industrial (Worstead) and get some Seajet, you can get 2.5L & 5L (5L much cheaper for boats of 25' + where you nee more than one 2.5L),I have never tried the tool station stuff.

Guest Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 There are other good quality and much cheaper alternatives to International & Blakes. I've used "Teamac" marine paints, which are far cheaper, but are used extensively by commercial vessels. They have stockists around the country, like Aqaufax at Hoveton, and also do mail order. http://www.teamac.co.uk/ Their antifouls are around £35 for 2.5 litres, and you can often get a discount on those prices too, just by asking: http://www.teamac.co.uk/antifouling-pai ... fouling-a/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VetChugger Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Snugtopz at Bramerton is selling antifoul at discounted prices. Might be worth a peek! Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Aquafax no longer stock Temac products. That's a shame, it was quite convenient for me, I bought some there last year, and they're still showing as a retail outlet on the Teamac website. There's plenty more around here though, such as Martham Boats and Stiffkey Marine at Holt, (unless they've not been updated either !) http://www.teamac.co.uk/stockist-network.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmtree Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hi, Thanks for the feedback, I think I might give the flag a try. Now all I need is some antisnow ready for Easter! Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbird Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 We use Seajet Emporer 034 which has proved very good, but is expensive. However, last month's MBM reviewed Seajet Shogun 031 which is about half the price and performed very well. Might be worth a look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
