Optimizing hull performance and longevity
Bottom paint services
Antifouling paint or “Bottom paint,” is essential for maintaining a vessel’s performance and longevity. It’s specifically formulated to prevent the accumulation of marine organisms like barnacles and algae on the hull’s submerged surfaces. By minimizing biofouling, bottom paint reduces drag, improves fuel efficiency, and protects the hull from damage caused by prolonged exposure to saltwater. Regular application of quality bottom paint is crucial for any vessel owner seeking to optimize performance and extend the lifespan of their boat.
Underwater metals protection for yachts is vital. We offer specialized antifouling paints and coatings “Propspeed” to shield propellers, rudders, and shafts from corrosion and marine growth. These solutions reduce drag, improve fuel efficiency, and extend component lifespan. Professional application ensures optimal protection and performance.
The first antifouling paint job is crucial. Proper prep, primer, and quality paint are vital, as this layer anchors all future coatings. This ensures long-term hull protection and performance.
Soda blasting is increasingly popular in nautical applications due to its gentler abrasive properties. It effectively removes antifouling paint, old coatings, and light fouling from fiberglass and aluminum hulls without damaging the underlying substrate. This method is favored for its ability to clean delicate surfaces, reducing the risk of damage compared to traditional sandblasting, while still providing a thorough cleaning necessary for proper paint adhesion.
