POPSPEED FOULFREE | AIRMAR Certified Transducer Coating
FOUL-RELEASE COATING FOR TRANSDUCERS
See the real picture
Formulated by industry-leading scientists and certified by Airmar for transducers, Foulfree is the latest addition to the Propspeed product line. Fouling on the face of transducers can reduce their sensitivity, bottom-echo returns and positive fish targets. Foulfree keeps transducers clean and operating at the top of their game for the clearest sonar images possible.
- TRANSDUCER SAFE: Certified by AIRMAR* and developed specifically for transducers to ensure sustained performance.
- PROPSPEED'S FOUL-RELEASE: Developed from the original foul-release coating’s technology, with the same promise of proven performance experienced by captains and boat owners worldwide.
- EASY TO USE: The application of Foulfree can be completed in 3 easy steps: 1. Clean - 2. Apply - 3. Let it dry
- BIOCIDE FREE: Foul-release, not antifoul. Foul-release coatings use physical means to reduce fouling, creating a surface that’s tough for marine organisms to adhere to.
- SEE THE REAL PICTURE: A foul-free transducer equals more clarity, detail and visibility below the waterline.
*AIRMAR certifies that the application of Foulfree coating on its transducers results in no loss in transducer performance.
WHAT'S IN THE KIT
- ABRASIVE PAD: The abrasive pad is used to prepare the transducer face and housing for the Foulfree transducer coating.
- XDCLEAN WIPE: XDclean is a transducer safe, pre-treatment cleaner. Having a clean transducer is critical to maximise the performance of Foulfree. The XDclean solution comes pre-packaged with a wipe to make cleaning easy.
- APPLICATION BRUSH: A small, high quality brush is included to provide the best result during the application of the Foulfree coating.
- CLEAR COAT: This kit contains 15ml of Foulfree Clear Coat, a non-toxic, silicone topcoat which forms a super slick outer layer that marine growth cannot adhere to, keeping your transducer performing at its peak.

Q&A
Why do I need Foulfree?
Fouling on the face of transducers can reduce their sensitivity, decreasing bottom-echo returns and fish targets and reducing the detail on the sonar image you receive. Foulfree forms a slick surface marine growth can’t grab onto, keeping your transducer surface clean and clear.
Can Foulfree damage my transducer?
No. Foulfree has been tested and proven to have no adverse effects on transducers.
How long will Foulfree last?
Foulfree lasts a minimum of 12 months, with an even longer service life in cooler climates.
Transducer Defense. Foul-Release.
Any marine growth on your transducer will negatively affect its performance, reducing the detail on the sonar image you receive. If you had a stereo speaker with something in front of it, absorbing the sound, you’d still hear the music but you’d lose some of the definition and detail. A transducer works in a similar way. Boat owners and captains the world over have experienced the Propspeed® difference — a longlasting, ultra-smooth surface that prevents marine fouling. Now Propspeed® is bringing its patented foul-release technology to your transducer.
Is Foulfree environmentally friendly?
Yes. Foulfree is a specialized foul-release coating that does not poison marine growth or release any toxins into the marine environment.
