Outer Skin Coating Extends Life of Inactive Ships
The Navy unveils a poisonous hot plastic paint for the outer hulls of ships in mothballs. It will resist barnacles and last five years in salt water and 15 years in fresh water. One or more ships per berthing unit stay in commission with a skeleton crew for maintenance. Preservation aims for 20 years or more, aided by dehumidification and dry interiors. About 1,125 ships in the 16th Fleet under Adm. KinKaid will receive the treatment.
