Awlgrip Boat Paint

It is nothing in short supply of amazing how a first-class Awlgrip linear polyurethane paint job can change your yacht. The deep shine can pull many years from your watercraft's age, plus the stiffness and toughness of Awlgrip far outpaces the durability of gelcoat. But what separates a flawless Awlgrip topsides or deck paint job from a so-so result? A couple of things: prep is necessary. Just a meticulous dedication to filling, fairing, sanding, and chasing after down the tiniest of defects when you look at the work area will produce an excellent finish. (Awlgrip, fabled for its brilliant, rich luster, normally extremely "unforgiving" in that it highlights more small ripple or bump). After that is a similarly fanatical awareness of masking - overspray is an unwelcome by-product of a poorly-masked work. Eventually, the artwork of team-spraying Awlgrip under managed circumstances is the key to perfection.

ANTIFOULING

Awlgrip could be the Mercedes of shows, but antifouling is equally as crucial. For the greatest adhesion and finish, appropriate area preparation, whether this means stripping or a comprehensive sanding, is important. As you go along to planning your ship for outstanding bottom work, NEB can take proper care of program upkeep (eg changing the zincs or examining the Cutlass bearing) and repair works (once you moved aground last summer, underneath was more rock than mud). Whether your boat is a racer or a cruiser, energy or sail, our company is happy to assist you in selecting the antifouling paint and application technique (roller or spray) which is best for your infant's base.
