new bottom paint flaking
I got my 2006 34 Mainship about three months ago.
This is my first time I've had a boat bottom painted. I got a local vendor who does a lot of bottom painting.
Four weeks, after the new paint job, I had the diver come in, to clean the bottom. He said there was 8 areas, some the size of a silver dollar where the new paint flaked off. In his words he said the people painting the boat did a "lousy job" in preparation.
I got on my own scuba tank to take a look...I only found 5 places, the size of a dime, where the new paint flaked off.
Can some one out there advise me:
The new paint is pettit hydrocoat.
Is this flaking normal? Can it get worst? Can you advise what I should do.
Regards
