Description

Interlux 17 racing paint.
This is a special racing paint for sailboats we use in freshwater. It works pretty well for that. It has a Teflon and copper base that works well in freshwater only.

Questions
I watched a YouTube video by Lady K Sailing that said VC17 will no longer be manufactured because of a ruling by the EPA. Is this true?
Interlux is reformulating it.
