Aluminium is a material which requires specialist knowledge and application.
We ensure the complete repairs of paint both above and below waterline.
01
FOR PAINTING A DECK
We dismount all the deck fittings and we mask the zones to be protected
The deck and the upper hull planking are entirely sanded
We have a sandblasting cabin in the port of Arzal
· The boats enters our air conditioned cabin for painting
· The entire deck fitting is put back again carefully

02
FOR PAINTING A HULL
During construction, Ovnis are delivered by ALUBAT with 3 coats of Epoxy and 2 coats of Antifouling.
These coats of Epoxy protect the hull from the Antifouling
(some antifoulings for aluminium contain copper thiocyanate).
It is therefore very important to check regularly that the epoxy is in good condition and holding well.
03
TOUCH UP PAINT
We can also apply touch up paint on recent boats (Sheets of aluminum must not be oxidized).
