The Biocop TF bottom paint is sold in gallons only and based on an average 32 foot boat the calculations are 1 gallon + 1 qt for 1 coat or 2 gallons + 2 quarts for 2 coats/3rd at the waterline. See our bottom paint calculator.
To remove the antifouling paint with a chemical we do not have Peal Away, but we so carry the Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper. It works very well as long as you follow the instructions.
However, if the paint condition is good now you can just scuff with 80/100 grip paper, wash debris off with water, dry thoroughly then apply paint. If the surface is going to be stripped down a few layers you may wish to apply the Barrier Coat Primer before the paint.
I’ve included all product links for your convenience and on each product page you’ll find the manufacturers' link for specific technical data regarding application.
