Marine Varnishing


Regular boat varnishing is important for protecting the woodwork of your boat to keep it looking and operating impeccably. UV rays from the unforgiving Australian sun alongside constant exposure to water cause the accelerated breakdown of layers of varnish protecting the woodwork of your boat from rot and leaks. This is also why you might find good layers of varnish peeling off woodwork as UV rays have caused cracks in the varnish allowing water to enter and separate the layers.

 

It is easy to prevent UV rays and water penetrating the woodwork of your boat by sanding back a coat or two of varnish and re-applying some more layers. If your boat spends a lot of time in the sun, it may require new coats of varnish two or more times a year to seal any cracks and prevent the wood from deteriorating. This may seem like a lot of varnish, but as the UV rays disintegrate the varnish, it thins and becomes easy to sand off old layers and apply new ones. Constant varnishing of the woodwork on your boat will make it look better every year.
