There are quite a few other paints in the line that contain the same "Biolux" version of Irgarol, and they are all still listed and advertised. The new "Extra 2" also contains it. I thought that the shortage of Irgarol last year was a temporary situation. Other manufacturers all seem to still have it as well, after a 1 season shortage. I think this mystery is deeper than that.

Bill,

We have been hearing around here that the “Extra” ingredient is becoming impossible to get and Interlux, Petit and the others are phasing it out of all their paints. We are still able to buy VC17m Extra around here, but the manager of the local West Marine told us that once it is gone, that will be it, only the non “Extra” formula will be available. I am betting that Micron is in the same situation and that Extra2 is reformulated with a different ingredient but may not be ready yet. There were some issues rumored last year, but this seems more final this year.

What is going on with Interlux Micron Extra? It is still being sold
everywhere, but has been omitted from all recent advertising and photos
of the Micron line of paint, and is no longer listed in Interlux website
product guides. Meanwhile there is information on the website about a
mysterious "Micron Extra 2" that does not seem to be available for sale
anywhere. Interlux also does not seem to have an MSDS for Extra 2,
although they still have one for Extra.
