Product description
Hempel Hard Racing Xtra is a high-quality hard antifouling which provides excellent protection against fouling for fast-moving motor and sailing yachts.

Benefits of Hempel Hard Racing Xtra
- High-quality hard antifouling.
- Excellent value for money.
- Easy to apply.
- Suitable for fresh, salt and brackish water.
Directions for use
Hard Racing Xtra antifouling is easy to apply with a brush, roller or paint pad. The minimum processing temperature is 5°C. Avoid working in direct sunlight.
- Always ensure that the surface is lightly sanded, clean, grease-free and dry before applying the Hempel antifouling.
- Ensure that the surface has been properly prepared for the antifouling to function optimally. Treat untreated surfaces with Hempel Underwater Primer. Do the same if the old antifouling is in poor condition.
- Stir the contents well to obtain a uniform colour. The product contains heavy particles.
- Apply 1 coat of Hempel Hard Racing Xtra with a dry film thickness of 40 µm. If necessary, add up to 5% thinner to aid application.
- Apply an extra layer around the waterline and on wear-sensitive areas. After approximately 4 hours (at 20°C) the antifouling is hand dry and ready for recoating.
- The boat can be launched after approximately 24 hours and up to a maximum of 6 months.
Note: always wear protective clothing, gloves and a suitable vapour mask when working with Hempel Mille Hard Racing Xtra antifouling!

The overcoating interval tells you when the next layer of paint, varnish or coating may be applied. Many multi-coat systems specify both a minimum and a maximum interval:
- Minimum overcoating time: the previous layer is dry or cured enough to accept another coat.
- Maximum overcoating time: the period during which the next coat can bond without extra surface preparation under the stated conditions.
Overcoating too early can affect drying or the finish. Once the maximum interval has passed, cleaning and sanding may be needed to ensure adhesion between coats. Temperature and film thickness affect the waiting times.
- 4 hours (20 °C)
-
Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
- Approximately 14 m²/L
-
A specific thinner that can be used, where permitted, to adjust a product's application properties or viscosity. The correct thinner and maximum quantity depend on the product. Incorrect thinning can affect coverage, drying and curing.
