Yacht Paint Polishing & Protection

RMP Marine polishes superyacht paintwork and gelcoat to restore gloss and depth, then protects the finish with AGlaze, a fluoropolymer sealant. We work at MB92 Barcelona, Pendennis Vilanova, in Tarragona and at marinas and refit yards across Europe.

← All services

What the service includes

  1. Assessment – We inspect the paintwork and agree what can be achieved.
  2. Preparation and polishing – Painted and gelcoat surfaces are polished to remove any contamination and restore gloss and depth.
  3. AGlaze protection – The sealant bonds with the paint to form a clear barrier against UV, salt and marine contamination.
  4. Reapplication – AGlaze wears away gradually, so it can be topped up when needed without abrasive removal.

AGlaze vs ceramic coating

AGlaze is a fluoropolymer sealant, not a ceramic coating. It doesn't form a hard ceramic layer and doesn't need abrasive removal before reapplication or repainting.

Common questions

What are the benefits of yacht paint protection?

AGlaze enhances the gloss and depth of painted surfaces and helps protect them from UV, salt, oxidation and contamination. Routine washing is easier and maintenance is reduced.

How long does yacht paint protection last?

Up to 18 months, depending on the condition of the paintwork, exposure and the yacht's maintenance routine.

Can paint protection extend the time between repaints?

By protecting the existing finish and reducing the build-up of contamination, regular application helps keep paintwork in condition and can extend the time between repaints.

Will AGlaze affect future repainting?

No. The standard sanding and preparation before any professional paint job removes any remaining AGlaze. No extra removal step is needed.

Can it be applied to new and existing paintwork?

Yes. We assess each yacht and prepare the surface before application.

Can paint polishing be done with the yacht in the water?

Yes, AGlaze can be applied in or out of the water.

Do you polish yachts at MB92 and Pendennis Vilanova?

Yes. We work frequently within MB92 Barcelona and Pendennis Vilanova, and also in Tarragona and at marinas and refit yards across Europe.
