Finishing FAQ

Often times, if the existing coating simply needs a boost of luster, it is not necessary to remove the existing coating completely. Sanding and cleaning are typically all that is required prior to applying a fresh coat of System Three epoxy or paint.

Keep in mind that the adhesion of a fresh coat of epoxy or paint is only as strong as the existing coating is on the substrate. So if it appears the existing coating is lifting or looks compromised in any way, you should consider stripping it back down to the substrate.

Pennant Topside Paint is designed to be applied over Pennant Primer for marine topside applications. If another manufacturer's topcoat is being used, testing on some scrap material is recommended to ensure you are satisfied with the results. It is also a good idea to perform an adhesion test before making your decision.

Pennant Topside Paint bonds tenaciously to unsanded Pennant Primer. If necessary, sand Pennant Primer to remove defects that would otherwise telegraph through to the topcoat.
