What do I need to do before I use the International Micron 350 (YBB623)?

In Good Condition

Thoroughly remove all contamination and fouling, including the leached layer. Use a high pressure wash (3000 psi) and/or scraping and wet sanding, avoid dry sanding. If old antifouling is incompatible or unknown, seal with suitable International Paint Barrier/Sealer coat.

In Poor Condition

Use Interstrip to remove all traces of antifouling and prime. The recommended primer depends on the material. Bare GRP should be primed with Gelshield 200 for osmosis protection or Primocon or Interprotect. Steel/Iron/Lead/Wood should be primed with Primocon or Interprotect.
