What paint is used on the wooden boat?

Wooden boats need to go through two processes to seal the hull and prevent it from rotting in the water: ①? Tung oil is sealed for the first time; (2) Brush the sealing paint for the second time.

Tung oil is a unique oil tree species in China, mainly produced in Yunnan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Hubei, Anhui and other places. It is extracted from tung oil seeds (oil content in seeds is 30% ~ 4 1%). As a traditional antiseptic vegetable oil for ship sealing, it mainly contains glyceride of eleostearic acid. Pale yellow and translucent, with high viscosity, acid and alkali resistance and strong permeability. It is used to coat the surface of wooden ship materials, and has the effects of anticorrosion, waterproof, moisture-proof, quick drying, high temperature resistance and strong adhesion.

The coating used for secondary sealing can be used as long as it has good waterproof performance.
