This guide is intended for painting ships, ships, fishing vessels, boats, barges, yachts, sailboats
Vessels are made of steel
New or in a condition that requires removal of all previous paint
Surface preparation: high water pressure washing to remove any salts and dirt. Sand cleaning to grade SA-2.5 or polishing with steel brushes to grade ST-3, the surface should be clean and dry of any dust, dirt, grease and/or loose paint. Covering with masking tape parts not to be painted (nickel/chrome railings, wooden parts, anodes, etc.). Avoid over-spray during spraying due to too high a pressure and/or too large a spraying distance and/or a lack of thinner in the mixture.
The recommended paint systems for painting the vessel parts after sand cleaning/polishing:
To extend the service life of the antifouling layers and considering the high cost of taking the ship out for painting, it is recommended to apply another antifouling layer, possibly blue. Better fifth layer black, sixth layer red and seventh layer blue.
Decks: polish well, red Epoxy Ship Primer, gray Epoxy Ship Decks in 1 mm casting, Denbargloss anti-slip top layer.
It is recommended to lower the entire boat into the water after 24 hours of finishing spraying the last antifouling layer.
Repainting steel vessels
Those in a condition where the layers of the previous paint are intact without peeling or scratches deep to the steel
Surface preparation: high water pressure washing to remove any salts and dirt. Polishing with glass paper sanders or soft brushes to the level of a stable and complete paint layer, the surface should be clean and dry of any dust, dirt, grease and/or loose paint. Covering with masking tape parts not to be painted (nickel/chrome railings, wooden parts, anodes, etc.). Avoid over-spray during spraying due to too high a pressure and/or too large a spraying distance and/or a lack of thinner in the mixture.
The recommended paint systems for painting the vessel parts without sand cleaning:
All upper parts of the vessel must be painted first and then lower parts. and
