Hempel Hempaspeed TF
At a glance
- Biocide-free
- Hard antifouling
- Suitable for aluminum
Hempaspeed TF combines the best of both worlds in one product. Hempaspeed TF is biocide-free like Ecopower and uses Silic One's unique hydrogel technology. The hard antifouling coating forms a smooth surface that minimises fouling and reduces resistance.
Hempaspeed TF is suitable for all waters and for aluminium, wooden, polyester and steel surfaces.
Benefits of Hempaspeed TF
- Hard antifouling.
- Biocide-free.
- Hydrogel technology.
- Smooth finish.
- Suitable for aluminium.
- Suitable for fresh and salt water.
Application Hempaspeed TF
- System for application over existing antifouling
To apply Hempaspeed TF over an existing antifouling, it is necessary to remove the existing coat first. After removing the old antifouling, apply 1 coat of Hempel Conversion Primer followed by 2 coats of Hempaspeed TF. - New system
If you are going to apply Hempaspeed TF to a surface not previously coated with an antifouling system, first ensure that the surface is well sealed with two coats of Hempel Light Primer. Then apply one coat of Conversion Primer and complete the system with 2 coats of Hempaspeed TF.

Density describes the mass of a material per unit volume. Values may be given in g/cm³, kg/L or kg/m³; 1 g/cm³ equals 1 kg/L. For example, one litre of a liquid with a density of 1.2 kg/L weighs approximately 1.2 kg. Density helps convert between weight and volume, but it can vary with temperature.
- 1 kg/L
-
The period for which an unopened product remains usable under the specified storage conditions. Check whether the period starts from the manufacturing date or another date. Shelf life may be shorter after opening, especially for products sensitive to air or moisture.
- 36 months
-
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)
-
A paint or varnish layer is dust-dry when settling dust is less likely to stick to the surface. It may not yet be touch-dry, ready for overcoating or suitable for loading; these are different stages of drying and curing.
- 15 minutes (20 °C), 4 hours (20 °C)
-
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.
