Minimize Maintenance And Maximize Performance With Propspeed’s Line Of Foul-Release Coatings!

Propspeed, the industry leader in foul-release coatings, has been protecting the performance of underwater assets for over 24 years. They have developed a product range that is unrivaled, offering three premium foul-release coatings: Propspeed for underwater metals, Foulfree™ for transducers, and Lightspeed™ for underwater lights. The latest addition to the product line is Stripspeed™, a solvent-based paint stripper for underwater metals.

Propspeed is trusted by thousands of captains and boat owners worldwide, here’s what Captain Bob Cook, from the fishing vessel Fat Tuna and NatGeo’s Wicked Tuna, has to say about Propspeed, “Last season, I had Propspeed’s products applied on my wheel, rudder, underwater lights and transducer. Fat Tuna looks as fresh hauling out as the day she went in for the season!”

The Propspeed coating system is recognized globally as the best protection from marine growth and corrosion of propellers, running gear, and other underwater metals. It has been tried and tested around the world, consistently delivering the same result – improved vessel performance, lower fuel and operational costs, and sustained value of investment – all while keeping the vessel’s running gear operating and looking its best.

Propspeed is the original foul-release coating system, recognized globally as the best solution to prevent marine growth and aid in protection from corrosion on running gear and all underwater metals. The super slick coating system saves time and money through increased efficiency and reduced operational costs. It has been tried and tested around the world, consistently delivering boat owners the same result – improved boat performance, lower fuel and operational costs, sustained value of their investment, all while keeping the vessel’s running gear operating and looking its best.

Propspeed also reduces the risk of corrosion by electrically isolating the metal, as well as limiting the exchanges between the ions and the gases contained in the water and the metal. In short, if a reaction cannot occur, there will be no corrosion.

Foulfree™, certified by Airmar*, is a foul-release coating system for transducers. Fouling on the face of transducers can reduce their sensitivity, bottom-echo returns, and positive fish targets. Foulfree keeps transducers clean and operating at the top of their game for the clearest sonar images possible. 

*AIRMAR certifies that the application of Foulfree coating on its transducers results in no loss in transducer performance. 

Protect your transducer with Foulfree and never miss a catch again!

The latest addition to the Propspeed product line: STRIPSPEED™

Stripspeed helps Propspeed applicators to prepare metal surfaces for reapplication, it removes foul-release coatings in 30* minutes or less. The thick consistency easily hangs on vertical and overhead surfaces, making it easy to use and there is no mixing required. Just shake, pour, and go. Stripspeed is non-flammable, non-caustic, DCM and NMP free. Unlike grinding or using abrasives, Stripspeed doesn’t cause mechanical wear through multiple refits and doesn’t create toxic dust or debris, increasing the lifetime of the metal. 

*Timing is subject to atmospheric conditions. Ideal temperature is 15-27°C (60-80°F)
