STOPSEL: The professional solution against the harmful effects of sea salt
Present in France since 1998, STOPSEL is a trusted product in the nautical sector. Initially designed for rinsing seawater-cooled engines, whether outboard or inboard, STOPSEL has gradually broadened its field of application. Today, it is also used to remove salt from cleats, sliding rails, zippers and other equipment exposed to salt attack.
Dominique Beuvin, Director of STOPSEL France, explains: "Many people think that a simple rinse with fresh water, followed by the application of a lubricant, is enough. However, even large quantities of fresh water do not completely remove the salt. This method merely coats the remaining salt particles, invisible to the naked eye. Using STOPSEL actually removes the salt, reducing water consumption and ensuring effective protection."
A product for marine mechanics workshops
If Stopsel is adopted by yachtsmen, it is also particularly well-suited to professionals in the boating and marine engineering sectors. Water consumption during engine wintering is drastically reduced, as Stopsel rinsing requires only a few minutes of engine running time for product removal and rinsing, as opposed to the usual half-hour rinse with fresh water, which also runs the risk of creating limescale deposits in the engine cooling system. This saves time, water and efficiency.
Specific versions, more concentrated than the consumer product, are marketed for professionals using large rinse tanks. Larger sizes than the 20 L can are available for workshops, with drums ranging from 60 to 200 L.
NAVY 6: The essential multifunction for the marine environment
In the marine sector, it's not enough to simply rinse. Protection is just as crucial. That's why STOPSEL has developed NAVY 6, a multifunctional product designed specifically to meet the needs of marine professionals. NAVY 6 stands out for its three essential functions, particularly sought-after in a marine workshop: it acts as a degreaser, lubricant and ensures optimal electrical connections. Its application leaves a non-greasy feel, making the mechanic's work more pleasant and efficient.
Adapted to the rigors of the marine environment, STOPSEL and NAVY 6 made in France are essential allies for any marine mechanic.
