7.2.3 Underwater Metal Components
All of your boat’s underwater metal components, including the shafts,
struts, propellers, trim tabs, and thru-hull fittings, have been factory-
prepared with a high quality primer and anti-fouling paint. The lifespan
of this paint varies depending on how and where you use your boat.
Inspect the underwater metal components once a year. If you see bare
metal showing through the paint, repaint the component. To obtain the
best results when repainting, Carver recommends that you use Interlux
products in the steps listed below.
IMPORTANT: When repainting the propellers, all primers and paints
must be applied by spraying only. This helps maintain as smooth a finish
as possible, which enables proper engine rpms and boat performance.
1. Degrease the component surface using Special Thinner 216.
2. Sand the metal to a uniform bright finish using coarse to medium
sandpaper. Remove the sanding residue.
The time between step 2 and step 3 must not exceed two hours. If it
does, repeat step 2.
3. Apply one thin coat of Viny-Lux Prime Wash 353/354 that has been
thinned 25% with Viny-Lux Solvent 355. Allow this coat to dry for at
least one hour but not more than 24 hours.
4. Apply two coats of 370 R Primer. Follow the drying time listed on
the label.
5. Apply three coats of Micron 33 anti-fouling paint. Follow the drying
times listed on the label.
7.2.4 Caulking and Sealants
Deck fittings, rail bases, window and all underwater fittings have been
sealed with the finest quality sealants. These sealants, however, do not
last indefinitely. The working action of the boat and the expansion and
contraction caused by variations in outside temperature eventually break
down the sealant.
Fittings that have begun to leak must be resealed. Remove the fitting and
clean the old sealant from both mating surfaces. Reseal the fitting using
the sealant recommended by your Carver Dealer.
