Not much UV will get past the outer layer of copper powder. Metals are notoriously opaque. There may be other problems. Cheers,

I thought you can't do epoxy and copper powder, because epoxy cannot handle sunlight UV.
You have to add it to the paint, I thought.

| Epoxy with copper powder might actually be better than the poor antifouling-paint which falls off and is repainted with bad preparations and falls off even faster.
