Guide \u00b7 Boat Care & Maintenance<\/p>\n
Antifouling, polish, sealant, or repair materials: With the right products, your boat will stay in good condition longer. Here you will find the most important points for selection.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Antifoulings differ in their mode of action (e.g., self-polishing or hard) and area of application. Choose the product based on the cruising area, boat speed, and existing coating, and observe the regulations of your region.<\/p>\n
New paints must match the existing coating. When in doubt, a primer or barrier coat will help. Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions.<\/p>\n
There are different adhesives and sealants for deck fittings, windows, and joints. The materials (GRP, wood, metal, plastic) and whether it will be painted over later are decisive factors.<\/p>\n
The hull, deck, teak, upholstery, and canvas covers each require suitable cleaning and care products. Test new products on an inconspicuous area first.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
