Once marine glass has been professionally restored, applying a suitable glass protection system can help make ongoing maintenance easier.

Marine Ceramic Coatings

Oceanix Yacht Care is a certified FEYNLAB® Marine Ceramic Coating installer, providing professional ceramic protection systems for gelcoat, paint and marine surfaces.

Ceramic protection provides enhanced surface protection, UV resistance, gloss and hydrophobic performance, helping reduce contamination and making your vessel easier to maintain in the harsh marine environment.

Professional Preparation. Certified Application. Marine Protection.

What Does a Marine Ceramic Coating Do?

Hydrophobic Surface

Helps water bead and run off more readily, making routine washing and maintenance easier.

Surface Protection

Provides an additional layer of protection against environmental exposure and everyday contamination.

Enhanced Gloss

Enhances the appearance, depth and finish of properly prepared gelcoat and painted surfaces.

Easier Maintenance

A properly coated surface can be easier to clean and maintain, helping reduce the effort required during routine washdowns.

What Ceramic Coating Doesn't Do

Not Scratch-Proof

Ceramic coatings provide surface protection but cannot prevent all scratches, impacts or abrasion.

Not Maintenance-Free

Regular washing remains essential.

Doesn't Hide Damage

Oxidation, scratches and significant surface defects should be addressed before coating.

Professional Surface Preparation

The quality of a ceramic coating installation depends heavily on the preparation carried out before the coating is applied.

Before coating, the surface is assessed, cleaned and prepared according to its condition. Where required, oxidation, contamination and surface imperfections are corrected before the coating system is applied.

Proper preparation helps ensure the coating can bond effectively to the prepared surface and provides the best possible foundation for long-term performance.

Assess

We inspect the condition of the vessel and identify the surfaces requiring preparation.

Clean

Surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and decontaminated.

Correct

Oxidation and surface imperfections are addressed where required.

Prepare

The surface is carefully prepared for coating application.

Apply

The selected FEYNLAB® system is professionally applied according to the requirements of the vessel and product.

Maintain

The coated vessel should continue to receive appropriate regular washing and maintenance.

Marine Surfaces We Can Protect

Depending on the selected FEYNLAB® system and the condition of the surface, ceramic protection may be suitable for:

• Gelcoat

• Painted surfaces

• Fibreglass surfaces

• Marine glass

• Selected exterior surfaces

Professional Ceramic Coating Installation

Professional ceramic coating installation requires careful preparation, appropriate product selection and correct application techniques. Our marine experience allows us to assess the condition of your vessel and recommend an appropriate protection system based on its surfaces, condition and intended use.

We combine professional coating systems with marine detailing and restoration expertise to prepare and protect vessels to a high professional standard.

Ceramic coating makes ongoing maintenance easier, but it does not eliminate the need for regular care.

Regular washing helps remove salt, dirt, bird droppings and other contaminants before they can build up on the surface.

Using appropriate, coating-safe products and washing techniques is important for maintaining the appearance and performance of the coating.

Regular Washdowns

Remove salt and environmental contaminants regularly.

Appropriate Products

Use products suitable for coated surfaces.

Prompt Cleaning

Remove bird droppings and other contaminants rather than allowing them to remain on the surface.

Professional Maintenance

Periodic inspections and maintenance can help keep the coating performing as intended.

Protect. Restore. Maintain.

Your vessel deserves professional care from experienced marine specialists.

Whether you need gelcoat restoration, polishing, ceramic protection, interior detailing or an ongoing maintenance programme, Oceanix Yacht Care can tailor the right solution to your vessel.
