could you "enhance" antifowling with copper swarf from your freindly engineering shop,would it be absorbed or would the "raw" copper in the paint be enough to discourage the little blighters ?
This bottom painting lark must be catching - lifted out this afternoon and washed off. I am told the bottom was clean put the rudders and prop shafts were a bit manky. Oh well, let them get on with it and antifoul, I'll go and inspect next weekend. There is always one seacock that gets missed.
Dalmation coast for me this year, where you off to?
um, coper swarf would be a bit too rough i think. Perhaps lots of v fine copper grains like what they use for sintering but then you are back to the non-homgeneuous problems, and it's paint, so it'll come off.
'sides, when you're going really fast, the electrons won't be able to jump the gap between the sheeting and the anode, or something. Hmmm. I'll shut up now.
After all, as my dad always says, 'Son, if you're in a hole, the best thing to do first is to stop digging.'
