Re: Recommendations for ablative paint

Anyone have direct experience with Micron CSC? Any water conditions to avoid or that it performs better?

Re: Recommendations for ablative paint

I used Micron CSC when I kept my boat in New England and hauled each winter. In Florida it didn’t perform well and I went to Micron 66 which was great. I’m now trying Micron Extra at the recommendation of a good Florida yard because Micron 66 can’t go into brackish water. Too early to tell how it compares.

If it performs where you are like it does here, there is no comparison. Micron 66 is one of the most effective anti fouling paints I have ever come across. Micron Extra, not so much.
