Antifouling was yesterday. F2 is today.
F2 is a sustainable protection against underwater growth – for clean hulls and clean oceans.
-
5+ years of protection
-
100% biocide-free
-
improved performance
F2 HullKit | Biozidfreies Antifouling
Das F2 HullKit besteht aus drei Komponenten – Primer, Adhesive Coat und Top Coat –, die nacheinander aufgetragen werden, um eine extrem glatte, hydrophobe Oberfläche zu schaffen, welche Unterwasserbewuchs für 5+ Jahre effektiv verhindert – 100% schadstofffrei und umweltfreundlich.
The F2 antifouling revolution:
-
The problem
Underwater growth is a constant nuisance for boat owners. It increases drag, drives up fuel costs and leads to expensive maintenance. Conventional antifoulings rely on toxic biocides, silicones and chemicals that are not only harmful to you, but also to the oceans.
-
The solution
F2 is the revolutionary answer to underwater growth: 100% environmentally friendly, extremely durable and easy to use. The hybrid polymer coating prevents organisms from settling because they perceive the surface like water - just one application protects your boat for at least 5 years.
✅ 100% free of biocides, toxins, silicones & VOC
✅ 5+ years of protection – with just one coat!
✅ Smooth hull – improved performance.
Effective anti-fouling in just 3 simple steps:
-
1st layer: Primer
The primer seals the existing surface and protects against moisture and corrosion.
-
2nd layer: Adhesive Coat
The adhesive coat combines primer and top coat and ensures strong adhesion.
-
3rd layer: Top Coat *
The top coat forms the outer protective layer on which nothing can settle.
* The top coat is available in different colors.
Convince yourself of the F2 effectiveness!

Von Anfang an war ich ehrlich gesagt beeindruckt von der Wirkung auf den Bewuchs. Es hatte sich etwas Schleim angesammelt, aber dieser ließ sich vom Dock aus in Sekundenschnelle abbürsten, sodass die Propeller wie neu aussahen.

Ich muss ehrlich sagen, ich war erstaunt: Das Boot lag sechs Monate an seiner Mooring, und ich fand lediglich einen sehr dünnen Film aus Schleim und ein paar kleine Krustentiere auf der Oberfläche des F2 ECO. Mit sauberem, seifigem Wasser und einer weichen Bürste habe ich den Schleimfilm und die kleinen Krustentiere in etwa 10 Minuten entfernt – ein fantastisches Ergebnis mit minimalem Aufwand!

Unsere Beobachtungen zeigten, dass sich der Bewuchs, der sich noch während der Aushärtungszeit bildete, extrem einfach entfernen ließ. Im Laufe der Zeit wurde die Leistung der Beschichtung immer besser. Nach etwa sechs Monaten im Wasser waren die beschichteten Flächen vollständig frei von Bewuchs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is F2?
F2 is not a conventional antifouling - it is a groundbreaking innovation for boats and the environment. The unique hybrid polymer coating effectively prevents marine animals and plants from settling, as the hydrophobic surface acts like water to them. The result? A constantly clean hull, significantly less maintenance, noticeably lower fuel costs and improved performance - without compromising on nature.
Is F2 really environmentally friendly?
Yes, F2 is 100% environmentally friendly as it contains no pollutants, biocides, silicones, solvents, catalysts or VOCs. It has been independently tested and meets the highest environmental standards by protecting marine ecosystems and not releasing harmful substances into the water. With F2 ECO you are making an active contribution to cleaner seas and a sustainable future - without compromising on performance.
How long does a coating with F2 last?
An F2 coating is extremely durable and is designed not to wear or disintegrate. F2 offers a 5-year warranty , but in practice F2 lasts significantly longer. Once applied, protection ensures lasting performance and saves long-term costs for rework and maintenance.
Can F2 be applied to any material?
Yes, F2 can be applied to almost all underwater materials such as GRP, aluminum, steel, carbon and even wood. However, for optimal adhesion, we recommend careful surface preparation, e.g. with a high-quality underwater primer such as F2 Primer or another suitable epoxy or vinyl primer. Please see our detailed application instructions for exact requirements.
How is F2 used? Do I need professional help?
F2 is straightforward to apply and can be easily done by yourself. Only two coats are required, applied with a paint roller - with no time restrictions between coats. Thorough surface preparation, such as cleaning and priming with a suitable primer, is important to achieve optimal results.
Professional help is not required, but if you have any doubts, you can always contact us. We provide detailed instructions and are available to answer any questions or provide support throughout the process.
What color is F2?
Der Top-Coat von F2 ist in unterschiedlichen Farben erhältlich, darunter ein glänzendes Schwarz (Glossy Black), ein glitzerndes Dunkelgrau (Sparkly Graphite), und ein glitzerndes Blau (Sparkly Blue).
