Pettit Vivid Reviews

Pettit Vivid Antifouling

A very effective bottom paint for the Great Lakes. – David B.

Compromise between more ablative and full hard paint for your hull. – Bert R.

I haven’t used the paint yet but I expect it will live up to its reputation. – Tom Z.

The best paint.

Pettit Trinidad Pro Reviews

Trinidad Pro

We first used Pettit Trinidad Pro on my sail boat in 2014. Now in 2021 a full 7 years later we have to repaint. Probably should have repainted last year but regardless of 7 years or only 6 years of effective coverage its amazing. Virtually no bottom growth for 6 years – WOW. This would be my permanent choice for bottom paint if Pettit were not finally giving up the fight. – Michael H

The delivery was fast but the gallon can was badly damaged due to the weight of the product inside. Nothing wrong with the contents and the package did have a red warning label Do Not Drop. Can’t blame the store, just the shipper. – Robert K

Used before it’s great.

Pettit Black Widow Bottom Paint Review


Pettit Black Widow Racing Antifouling, Black

Went on thin but easily. Definitely needs two coats as the sanding/buffing to bring out the best in the product was worn through on edges/thin spots. Seems very slick….first time trying this one.

I will know more later in the summer and beyond. I am hopeful that it is as good it sounds. I tried a roll and tip method for applying the two coats of paint, and it sets up too quickly for that, so I think it would be applied better by either roller or brush alone.

Pettit HRT Paint Reviews

Unepoxy HRT, By Pettit

I love this paint. This is my fifth year, and only have had to do some touch up on the boat bottom. Excellent. – Fran Z.

Love this product have used it many times before on several cruisers and fast boats always greatly impressed with the outcome.

 

 

Pettit Prop Coat Barnacle Barrier 1792 Reviews

Works well. George K. published on 03-22-2023

Product worked as expected I will rate the results when I haul the boat in the fall. salvatore s. published on 03-06-2023

Went on somewhat easily, but make sure you mechanically stir the solids in. No amount of mechanical shaking will break up the mass in the bottom of the can. Hopefully it holds up OK. Not expecting long term, but 9-12 months would be nice. Aaron G. published on 07-26-2022

It works, it really does. Gregory C. published on 04-24-2022

I am very happy with Pettit Prop Coat and especially happy with the brush on quart can availability now. Spray can version is never as good with half or more going into the air and is much thinner. I’ve tried many products and PPC is the best so far. Curtis W. published on 03-10-2022

Product works great.

So far so good, extremely easy to apply, hopefully it will work well. published on 05-24-2021

Awesome product!
