Special anti-fouling paints can be applied on the surface of ships to protect them from various forms of corrosion, including pitting corrosion, waterline corrosion, crevice corrosion, and barnacle growth which can lead to dry corrosion.
- Anti-fouling paints are often applied as one component of multi-layer coating systems which may have other functions in addition to their antifouling properties, such as acting as a barrier against corrosion on metal hulls that will degrade and weaken the metal,[or improving the flow of water past the hull of a fishing vessel or high-performance racing yachts.
- Anti-fouling paints are used to coat the bottoms of ships to prevent sealife such as algae and mollusks attaching themselves to the hull – thereby slowing down the ship and increasing fuel consumption.
- Tributyltin or TBT is a biocide that came into being in the 1970s because of its brilliant anti-fouling properties over the ship's hull as it prevents the growth of algae, barnacles, and other marine organisms.
- Boat bottom painting is necessary for any boat that stays in the water continuously for long periods.
- Bottom paint, also called anti-fouling paint, deters the growth of aquatic organisms, plants, and algae that damage your boat's hull, affect the boat's performance, and add a continuous ongoing maintenance chore.
