I always use ablatives and never NEVER any antifoulants with metals like copper. I also put on an epoxy barrier first..it still wears off in no time attall. Joe I'm surprised at Joe's suggestion, which will cause electrolysis corrosion on the prop. If you're going to paint your prop with anti- fouling, you need to either prime it first OR use a non-metal-based anti-fouling. It dont matter anyway..it's not going to last long anyway.. I tried everything Scotty, and nothing last more than 1 year. After a year you need to jump in and scrape the wheel often. Barnacles won't grow on a prop that gets run every week or so.
