A coating array for protecting a substrate immersed in water or seawater for periods of time comprises a conductive layer and an antifouling layer. The conductive layer comprises polymers which are electrically conductive. The antifouling layer comprises polymers which have a low surface free energy. The layers are designed such that when the conductive layer is exposed to a pulse of electrical, acoustic or microwave energy or combinations thereof, said conductive layer separates from said antifouling layer above it and below it.
