Removing anti foul from a PAC 22

[JLA]

Hi All

New to this forum, just wondering if anybody has any tips on removing antifouling paint from the Hull of a PAC and cleaning the tubes?

[charlie turner]

When I did my rib I scraped all the old anti-foul off and went over it lightly with a sander then prima+antifoul
For tubes I use rib shine and uv protection
Hope this helps

Welcome to the forum - I may be biased but a nice boat you have there.

What number is it?

I use Polymarine inflatable boat cleaner on my tubes.

I've left the old anti-foul on but:

has some guidance.

Hi Guys

Thanks for the replies appreciated.

another PAC owner! It's 8313 what about you?

i will have a look at the web site see what work it is lol

Just in case you don't know, your boat is 1983, hull number 13. I've got 9125.

I've collected a few manuals during my ownership so if you need any send me a PM and I'll e-mail them to you.

Is there somewhere on the forum I can put them?

Scraper and patience is best route,scrape of lightly sand with 400 grit and polish, with farecla G3 or similar

Tubes,
Neat truck wash not a cheap brand tho, gloves and a scotch brite fine pad, car sprayers use them,
Only work on a small area at a time and continually rinse off as you go,
Protect with rib revive its amazing gear
