The British Coatings Federation (BCF) Marine Coatings Group has followed up on its successful survey for boat owners on the DIY use of antifouling (AF) paints by launching three additional surveys on the topic, aimed at professional applicators, boatyard managers/owners and Chandlers.
The surveys are designed to better understand the current use of antifouling paints by DIY users and to raise their awareness over the possibility that authorities may decide to restrict the application and use of AF paints to strictly professional applicators and organisations. More than 800 submissions have been made in response to the original survey, indicating the level of interest and concern regarding this issue.
