What is PropGlide?
PropGlide is a foul-release coating that when applied to your propeller(s) and running gear will increase fuel efficiency and the performance of any vessel. This super slick coating keeps your propellers clean from marine growth for extended periods of time. Gain the advantages by applying PropGlide to your vessel
PropGlide…keeps your propellers clean from marine growth for extended periods of time
Increase in Prop Speed Means a Faster Vessel
PropGlide dramatically reduces drag on the propeller and running gear caused by even the smallest fouling. Since growth is unable to attach to PropGlide® you will achieve higher RPM and vessel speed
Ease of Application
Improved Fuel Efficiency
Biocide-Free and Environmentally Friendly

What is the best coating for boat propellers?
The best coating for boat propellers depends on various factors, including your specific needs, the type of boat, the waters you navigate, and your environmental considerations
Here are some popular coatings for boat propellers:
- Anti-Fouling Paint: Anti-fouling paint contains biocides that deter the growth of marine organisms. It prevents fouling on the bottom of boats but is not an effective, long-lasting solution because it rarely adheres to underwater metal or propellers
- Foul-Release Coatings: Foul-release coatings create a smooth, low-friction surface that makes it difficult for marine organisms to adhere. These coatings are environmentally friendly, reduce drag, and are low maintenance. One of the most effective and economical foul-release coating brands is PropGlide, which is highly effective and costs 40% less compared to competitive brands like Propspeed
- Epoxy Coatings: Epoxy coatings can provide a protective barrier against corrosion and help maintain the integrity of your propeller’s metal. They will not prevent fouling like a foul-release coating
- Copper-Based Coatings: Copper-based coatings, like copper epoxy or copper-based anti-fouling paints, release copper ions into the water to deter fouling. Copper-based coatings should be used with caution on underwater metal and propellers as the effect of metal on metal creates corrosion and will form pitting in the metal and cause the coating to detach
PropGlide® foul-release coatings are the best coating for your boat propeller and running gear for the following reasons:
- Ease of Application: PropGlide® is easy to apply for Do-It-Yourselfer and not just for the professional applicator
- Low Maintenance and Environmental Friendliness: PropGlide® is non-toxic, biocide free, and requires less frequent maintenance, making it an environmentally friendly option
- Performance Improvement: PropGlide® will reduce drag and improve your boat’s performance and fuel efficiency. PropGlide® dramatically reduces drag on the propeller and running gear caused by even the smallest fouling. No growth equals a higher RPM and vessel speed
