Paints and Antifouling Primers

Our brands

Primers, paints and antifouling coatings are essential for protecting and maintaining boats in perfect condition, preventing corrosion, osmosis and the accumulation of marine organisms on the hull.

🔹 Marine Primers (Undercoats and Adhesion Primers)

Primers prepare the surface to ensure better adhesion of paints or antifouling coatings.

Types of primers

✔️ Epoxy primers → for anti-corrosion and anti-osmosis protection (e.g. Epoxy Primer, Gelshield 200).
✔️ Single-component primers → for metal, wood and fiberglass (e.g. Plastiprimer, Zinc Primer).
✔️ Antifouling primers → promote the adhesion of antifouling paints (e.g. Adhesion Primer).

📌 Ideal for: protecting fiberglass, steel and aluminum hulls and preventing osmosis.

🎨 Marine Paints (Finishes and Enamels)

Marine paints offer protection and a durable, attractive finish.

Types of paints

✔️ Polyurethane enamels → UV-resistant, ideal for superstructures and interiors (e.g. Polyurethan Gloss).
✔️ Transparent paints → for wood and teak, protecting against the elements (e.g. Wood Gloss).
✔️ Epoxy paints → for underwater protection and anti-corrosion (e.g. Epoxy Coating).

📌 Ideal for: protecting and decorating hulls, decks and boat interiors.

⚓ Antifouling coatings (Antifouling paints)

Antifouling paints prevent the growth of algae and marine organisms on the hull, improving speed and reducing fuel consumption.

Types of antifouling coatings

✔️ Self-polishing → wear off gradually, ideal for sailboats and motorboats traveling at moderate speeds (e.g. Mare Nostrum, Micron Extra).
✔️ Hard matrix → erosion-resistant, suitable for high speeds (e.g. Admiral, Hard Racing).
✔️ Eco-friendly → biocide-free, safe for the environment (e.g. Silic One).

📌 Ideal for: keeping the hull clean and improving performance in the water.

✅ Why use primers, paints and antifouling coatings?

✔️ Long-term protection against corrosion, osmosis and marine agents.
✔️ Better performance while sailing and reduced fuel consumption.
✔️ A well-maintained appearance, with glossy and durable finishes.
