Painting the sterndrive and
underwater hull
Underwater hull
Anti fouling agent containing copper oxide can
increase the risk of galvanic corrosion and therefore
should never be used.
General
Most countries have introduced legislation controlling
the use of anti-fouling agents. In some cases these
agents are completely forbidden for use on leisure
craft. In these cases ask your Volvo Penta dealer
for advice about alternative methods.
IMPORTANT! Never paint all the way forward to
the shield, this can increase the risk of galvanic
corrosion. Leave an area of 10 mm (1/2”) around
the shield unpainted.
IMPORTANT! Find out what regulations apply to
the use of anti-fouling agents.
Sterndrive
The paintwork is part of the drive’s anti-corrosion
protection and it is therefore important that any
paintwork damage is remedied.
Sand down metal surfaces lightly using a 120 grade
paper and a finer grade for painted surfaces. Wash off
using thinners or similar. Any pores in the surface
should be filled and sanded down.
Paint using Volvo Penta original primer and topcoat.
Let the paint dry.
The drive should be painted with Volvo Penta anti-
fouling to prevent fouling. Apply according to the
instructions on the packaging.
IMPORTANT! The sacrificial anodes on the
drive must not be painted.
