GRP, osmosis repair & painting

Sandblasting

Our paint shop (18m x 7m with a 4.5m high entrance gate) is dust-free and temperature regulated: It is equipped with a modern spray unit that not only adheres to modern environmental requirements but manages to enable the practical and complicated process of painting boats efficiently. Our yard specialises in the swift and careful application of coatings to new boats, repairs to existing and any other colour coatings above and below the waterline to all manner of boats. Our extensive experience enables us to advise you of the most appropriate antifouling.

We also have modern water-based sandblasting equipment available which ensures the removal of any colour and rust remains prevalent in GRP. This equipment solves the problems of osmosis (small hull blisters often prevalent in older GRP boat hulls). We are able to rapidly strip and repair and treat hull segments that show osmosis.

Once blasted we are able to reconstruct the hull and repair the gel and our team also specialises in the repair of hull/GRP fatigue cracks.
