Ho effective would this be on a wooden hull of an old boat regarding water ingress
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Assuming the hull is clean, dry, sound, watertight and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend Teamac Hull Blacking for this application.
This has excellent water resistance.
