Protect Your Boat With AkzoNobel’s Range of Ultimate Yacht Coatings
Just like your car or home, when it comes to your boat, there is a level of maintenance that is required to keep your boat functioning well, and choosing the right coatings is a crucial element in protecting and enhancing your boat’s performance in tough marine conditions.
Selecting the right primer is the first key step in this process — and our Interlux® InterProtect® 2000E VOC is the perfect choice and most trusted primer for both boat owners and professionals.
The unique two-part epoxy coating was developed to protect new and used fiberglass hulls from water absorption, which in turn reduces the risk of poor hull performance and osmotic blistering. It also delivers premium corrosion resistance for those underwater metals.
Specially formulated with Microplates®, the coating creates an overlapping barrier to eliminate any direct path for water migration.
InterProtect 2000E is suitable for use above and below the waterline as a universal primer for all surfaces, as its anticorrosive properties make it ideal for use on metal. It can also be used as an undercoat/filling primer to repair cracks in fiberglass decks.
The coating was developed to be easy to apply without sagging or running, and the long overcoating times between coats add versatility and flexibility in a boatyard environment.
While choosing the right primer system is important, so is ensuring the bottom of your boat is kept in good condition with a high-quality antifouling coating — especially if it is kept in the water.
Our Interlux Ultra-Kote® is an excellent, long-lasting antifouling for boats in all waters.
Ultra-Kote’s innovative technology protects the bottom from barnacles and other fouling that can create drag and slow you down — even when in the most challenging fouling areas.
The coating delivers a durable finish that prevents wear-through, with excellent color stability so it remains looking good longer.
While Ultra-Kote keeps the boat’s hull protected, for topcoats AkzoNobel’s Awlgrip® range has kept boats looking their best for almost 50 years.
The brand’s latest offering — Awlgrip HDT® (High Definition Technology) — allows owners to protect their boat with a stunning, long-lasting, mirror-like finish, without sacrificing convenience.
By combining repairability, hardness and micro-scratch resistance with superior gloss retention, Awlgrip HDT keeps the finish in breathtaking condition longer.
Outshining traditional topcoats with its outstanding clarity and distinction of image, its game-changing formulation also contains significantly lower VOC content than typical high-gloss coatings — setting new standards in sustainability.
