Recreational Marine


Whether it’s a yacht or a dinghy, a ski boat or a jet ski, Precision Coatings has the performance coating systems to restore hull sides, enhance the water line and boot stripes, add optical effects with graphics and recreate interiors to a better than “Just launched” finish. Precision Coatings are designed to perform from the water line up.

Durable, Extended Lifecycle Marine Exteriors

An exterior finish that provides durability, aesthetics and performance requires a coating system that is flexible, stands up to abrasion, chemically resistant to fuels and ultra violet resistant. Precision Coatings offers corrosion resistant high build primers, fast recoat corrosion resistant primers and tightly cross-linked aliphatic (linear) polyurethane finishes that meet these demanding requirements. Precision’s DTM 1300 modified epoxy corrosion resistant primer is a high-build sanding primer that can be applied over a properly prepared gel coat, coated or composite substrates. DTM1300 can be easily sanded smooth to provide a sound surface upon which to apply Precision’s PC3v100 finish color in either a solid color, metallic or a refined pearl (iridescent). While it is not necessary, but it is tempting, PC3v100 clear can be applied to add depth of image to the coated surface. Aficionados might even consider cutting and buffing the clear to take the coating close to a mirror-like finish.

In addition to offering coating systems that are highly resistant to the marine environment, Precision also offers our unique Slip Shield 1000 that is available in clear and solid colors specifically formulated to improve the slip resistance of the coated surfaces.

Robust, Light Reflective Marine Interiors

In the recreational marine market, interior finishes that are easily cleaned, resistant to chemicals such as oils and hydraulic fluids yet provide a high grade extended lifecycle finish for coated surfaces, gel coat and wood surfaces are highly desirable as they reduce maintenance requirements and increase the time you can spend on the water. Precision’s DTM 1400 corrosion resistant modified epoxy primer combined with our PC3v100 aliphatic (linear) polyurethane finish in solid colors, iridescents and clears are ideally suited to provide the high performance coating system for marine interiors. In addition, such a coating system offers improved light reflectance on liners and cleanable surfaces in the galley and engine room. Precision’s PC3v100 Clear will keep interior wood surfaces stunning with a flexible, but durable surface. While we recommend PC3v100 Clear on your interior hardwoods, we do not recommend this system on teak and exterior brite work. Clear aliphatic (linear) polyurethane polymer coatings do not breath, thus teak and exterior brite work wood trim should never be coated with a coating that will entrap oil or moisture in the exterior substrate thus resulting in blistering.
