Corrosion Prevention for SeaPods

Mild steel is the one of the most commonly used material in building structures on land and at sea. It is also used in the building the structure of a SeaPod. Steel, however, has a high corrosion rate when exposed to sea water. There are various methods in practice to protect steel structures from corroding. 

The following article describes a way of protecting SeaPod structures using silane and siloxane based paint called Sea-Speed V 10X Ultra Clear. 

Initially designed for sail and motor racing vessels, Sea has been forefront of development of surface functionalized silane/siloxane and polysiloxane coating technologies for non–stick release in the marine industry since 2001. 

 It is easy to apply and provides a very durable high gloss finish that is non-stick and extremely smooth.

Anti-Fouling Paints

 

This makes the SEA-SPEED the only sustainable & green alternative to soft silicone coatings and TOXIC

 

 

Anti-fouling paints are toxical. They discharge toxins to keep the surface clean from sea life. Many countries are already fighting against it. That’s why I was looking for alternatives and found paint that is doing the same job. It’s silicone based and non-toxic..
