AM Marine Custom Boats, located in Annapolis, Maryland, has over 30 years experiece in the marine industry and have developed a great reputation, consistently producing beautiful Propspeed jobs. Propspeed’s Darron Zimmer, Mid Atlantic regional sales manager, visited the team recently to introduce them to Propspeed. Ann Miller tested it out and was blown away by the results - “it comes off like butter.”
Developed to help Propspeed applicators to prepare metal surfaces for reapplication, Stripspeed removes foul-release coatings in 30 minutes or less. The thick consistency easily hangs on vertical and overhead surfaces, making it easy to use and there is no mixing required. Just shake, pour and go. Stripspeed is non-flammable, non-caustic, DCM and NMP free. Unlike grinding or using abrasives, Stripspeed doesn't cause mechanical wear through multiple refits, and doesn't create toxic dusts or debris, increasing the lifetime of the metal.
Propspeed, the original and best performing foul-release coating in the industry, has been tried and tested around the world for over 21 years, consistently delivering customers the same result - improved boat performance, lower fuel and operational costs, sustained value of their investment, all while keeping the vessel’s running gear looking its best. With an ultra-slick topcoat, Propspeed is specially formulated to prevent marine growth from bonding to metal surfaces below the waterline. It is proven to increase boat efficiency, reduce drag and save fuel and maintenance costs. It features an exceptionally strong chemical and mechanical bond between the metal substrate, the primer and the clear coat– ensuring that the Propspeed coating actually sticks to your running gear and performs season after season.

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. *AIRMAR certifies that the application of Foulfree coating on its transducers results in no loss in transducer performance.

The Propspeed coating system is recognised globally as the best prevention of marine growth and fouling of propellers, running gear and other underwater metals. Foulfree™, certified by AIRMAR, protects transducers from fouling to ensure accurate signal transmission. Lightspeed™, endorsed by Lumishore, is a transparent coating that not only protects underwater lights from fouling, it also restores any damage caused by removing fouling from lenses.
The Propspeed brand has been established as the industry benchmark in foul-release coatings, with over 21 years strong brand presence. The rebranding represents this evolution and elevation that aligns with our industry leading foul-release coatings. The rebranding is extensive, which includes new logos, a modernized, information rich website, packaging (to enter the market mid 2021), and updates to social media platforms and collateral to better align with our company's business goals and passion. The design cues are based on elements found in the logo today, but with a modernized treatment.
