Between the water and the substrate, the marine protective coatings act as a barrier to shield it from harm.
They are typically used on ships, tankers, and other watercraft, but they are also used on offshore oil rig structures like buoys and propellers It yields high gloss finishes to wood, fibreglass, aluminium, or steel and may be applied with a paint roller, brush or spray gun and most importantly its superior resistance to sun, saltwater, chemicals, and abrasion.
A coating is a covering that is put on an object’s surface, also known as the substrate. The coating may be used for practical, ornamental, or a combination of both purposes. It is possible to apply coatings as liquids, gases, or solids, such as powder coatings.

With the introduction of Awlgrip HDT (High Definition Technology), a revolutionary single-stage repairable topcoat from AkzoNobel, managing yacht care and maintenance has never been simpler.
Awlgrip HDT is a high performance, mirror-like single-stage coating that allows owners to cover their boats with a spectacular, long-lasting finish without sacrificing convenience, setting new standards in topcoat look and toughness. When put to the test during the most recent Volvo Ocean Race, the innovative product passed even the most rigorous tests (now called The Ocean Race).
Awlgrip HDT, which has less volatile organic compounds (VOCs) than conventional topcoats, combines the functionality of a hard, long-lasting finish (Awlgrip topcoat) and a somewhat softer, repairable finish (Awlcraft 2000).
The new Awlgrip product is now available in North America and Europe. It follows the introduction of Awlgrip HDT polyurethane clear coat in October last year, which can be applied over the entire lineup of Awlcraft SE basecoats. Awlgrip HDT will provide yacht owners with a more durable and simple to maintain finish because they are constantly seeking to please their clients.
It’s an additional tool in the “box of paint tools” that was created with a focus on reproducibility, great colour retention, and consistent application. All of their products are designed to change the world.
They were dedicated to developing functional colours as well as cutting-edge supporting colour tools and solutions that address any technological issues or performance requirements their sailboat customers have.
