TotalBoat JD Select: Cost-Effective, Water-Based Antifouling Paint with Full-Season Protection

Simple soap & water cleanup makes the job easier.

It's no fun scraping barnacles and other crusty critters off your boat bottom, much less shelling out a lot of clams for someone else to do it. TotalBoat JD Select hybrid water-based ablative antifouling bottom paint contains a medium copper biocide load to prevent barnacles from making your hull their home—for a full season. Its ablative properties are designed to help shed slime, while preventing paint buildup on the surface. JD Select is easy to apply by brush, roller, or spraying. Its unique water-based formula also cleans up easily with soap and water. Better for you, better for the marine environment.

Medium copper content keeps barnacles at bay in low to moderate fouling waters—often with just a single coat.

TotalBoat JD Select has low VOCs and low odor, so it doesn't stink like solvent-based bottom paint. JD Select uses water in place of a solvent, so when the water evaporates, the resin hardens, leaving this antifouling paint as effective as any solvent-based bottom paint with medium copper content. Because of its high-solids content, one coat is usually all you need for full-season protection.
