Coppercoat Can Now Fly!

By Administrator · On February 10, 2016

Customers of long lasting Coppercoat anti-fouling paint have reason to celebrate; their 10 year touch up kits can fly with them, instead of being shipped. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced in their 2015 regulations that substances classified as UN #3077 and UN #3082, which were previously classified as low level hazardous materials, are no longer subject to those regulations, provided the packaging meets their general provisions. In a nutshell, customers who need Coppercoat to touch up their boat in the Caribbean or South Pacific can take it back on the plane with them in their luggage. Coppercoat has been available for 25 years, so there are a lot of boats out there with many years of Coppercoat service.
