      Preparatory systems before primers enable you to start with a surface that is consistent with the paint application. The surface must first be degreased, sanded or blasted, depending on the substrate and the process selected. It is essential to respect the cycle for optimum cohesion between coats.

      Filling in scratches, levelling out deformations, redoing profiles, coatings are used to prepare the surface of your boat.
      Before applying protective or finishing paint, the filler must be applied between two coats of primer, then protected with a multi-layer coating.

      Applying a topcoat is the ultimate step in painting. Our single- or two-component finishing systems will enhance your boat’s appearance and provide a lasting protective barrier against the elements (such as sun, rain, wind and abrasion).

A Nautix Product

Polyurethane topcoat with low heat absorption

COOLBLACK topcoat is a “cold” finishing paint with low heat absorption. Thanks to its special pigments, heat absorption can be reduced by up to 35% compared to a classic black topcoat . This improves the protection time of black composite structures (carbon, fibreglass, etc.) and limits the negative effects of post-curing. In addition, black sailboats will also benefit from better insulation and a cooler atmosphere in the cabin, reducing the need for air conditioning.

COOLBLACK is an innovative product, designed by Nautix following a request from an offshore racing team. The complete system includes the U2 white epoxy undercoat combined with the COOLBLACK black polyurethane topcoat.

Nautix produces COOLBLACK topcoat in Europe.
