Marine Painting & Varnishing
Our workshop is also located right on Port Marlborough’s hard stand facility making it easy for us to service vessels in the yard as well. Having travel lift access enables vessels to be brought from your berth into our workshop where we can undertake full repaints.
We pride ourselves on our marine paint finishes and we also have excellent colour matching capabilities for paint touch ups or custom colours.
Marine varnishing is also a specialty, it’s amazing how much of an effect new varnish work can have on the appearance of your vessel. We can roll, brush or spray new varnish systems with either single pack or two pack varnish.
Get finished by the best.

Antifouling
A very important part of boat maintenance is antifouling – treatment of your boat’s hull to prevent a build up of unwanted substance and creatures (such as barnacles) on the surface of your boat.
We can apply your antifoul by either rolling or airless spraying.
Propspeed & Lightspeed
Propspeed is a silicon-based product that makes your running gear more efficient to operate and more economical to maintain. Propspeed has been known for increasing fuel efficiency.
We are approved applicators of Propspeed and can apply it to your vessel’s underwater metal surfaces.
Underwater lights can also be maintained with Lightspeed their new foul-release product developed especially for underwater lights.
