Default Bottom paint

Some paints are intended to slough off over time or with friction. This prevents unwanted growth from attaching itself to the hull. I recall that some of these are applied in a two step process. When the finish coat wears away, the undercoat, a different color, shows and you know it is time to repaint, or at least where to touch up.
