I have some mini blisters on my C25 rudder,below the waterline, and would like to remove them and protect rudder from any future ones. I have addressed blisters on previous boats but it has been awhile and there are new products out now that I am unfamiliar with. Let me know if I am on the right track and if you have had experiences with what/how I am about to remedy this.I am open to any other products that have been used successfully. Plan is as follows: Open blisters, dry out blisters, fill blisters with Interlux Interprotect 2000E or use VC-Tar Barrier Coat Epoxy, sand and apply Interlox VC 17M Exter with Biolux...Thanks

I wouldn't use the tar. I'd fill them with west system mixed with a light to medium filler - micro ballons or maybe colloidal silica. 2000e interprotect and then the VC17M

FWIW, If you are planning to use VC-17M as your anitfoulant of choice, Interlux states that VC-Tar2, an epoxy barrier coat, is the "ideal" primer base for VC-17M.
