Professional Boat & Yacht Painting in Mallorca
Hull, Topsides and Superstructure Painting
Give your boat’s exterior a professional, lasting finish
Whether your yacht requires a complete repaint, a colour change or localized paint repairs, proper surface preparation is essential to achieving a professional and durable finish.
We provide exterior painting and refinishing for hulls, topsides and superstructures, adapting the preparation and paint system to the condition of each surface and the finish required.
Before repainting, we assess the existing coating and identify any areas that require repair or additional preparation. Where necessary, damaged fiberglass or gelcoat can be repaired before the painting process begins.
A professional finish starts with careful preparation.
Our painting process is adapted to the condition of the vessel, the existing coating system and the required finish. From surface preparation and repairs to primer, topcoat and final inspection, each stage is carried out with attention to detail and according to the specifications of the selected marine paint system.
Professional Boat Painting Process
Our painting process is carried out in carefully controlled stages to ensure proper adhesion, a uniform finish and long-lasting protection.
1. Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for achieving a durable, high-quality paint finish. We clean, sand and prepare the existing surface, removing contaminants and any loose or deteriorated coatings that could affect adhesion.
2. Repairs and Fairing
Before applying the paint system, we repair cracks, damage and surface imperfections to restore a smooth and properly prepared surface. Depending on the condition of the vessel, this may include localized fiberglass or gelcoat repairs and fairing where required.
3. Primer and Topcoat Application
Once the surface is properly prepared, we apply the appropriate primers and topcoats according to the selected marine paint system. The choice of products, colour and finish is adapted to the existing substrate, the requirements of the project and the desired result.
4. Final Inspection and Finish
After the final coats have been applied, we inspect the painted surfaces and complete any finishing work required to ensure a uniform, professional result. Particular attention is given to details, edges and transitions between painted areas.
Marine Paint Systems for Boats and Yachts
Choosing the right marine paint system is essential for achieving a durable finish and protecting the underlying surfaces. The appropriate system depends on factors such as the substrate, the condition of the existing coatings, the area being painted and the finish required.
Depending on the project, the painting process may include surface preparation, fairing compounds, primers, undercoats and marine topcoats. Each product must be compatible with the selected system and applied according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
For exterior surfaces exposed to sunlight, saltwater and changing weather conditions, professional marine coatings provide the durability, colour retention and finish required for the marine environment.
Does Your Yacht Really Need Repainting?
Not every faded or dull paint finish requires a complete repaint. If the existing coating is still in good condition, professional polishing may restore gloss and improve the appearance of the surface without repainting.
Before recommending a complete paint job, we can assess the condition of the existing finish and determine whether polishing, localized paint repairs or repainting is the most appropriate solution.

Antifouling for Boats and Yachts in Mallorca
Antifouling is an essential part of regular boat maintenance, helping to protect the underwater hull from marine growth such as algae, barnacles and other fouling organisms. Choosing and applying the appropriate antifouling system helps maintain the hull in good condition throughout the season.
At Refit Mallorca, we provide professional antifouling services for boats and yachts across Mallorca, adapting the preparation and products to the condition of the hull, the existing coating and the vessel’s requirements.
Why Is Antifouling Important?
Marine growth can quickly build up on an unprotected underwater hull, affecting its condition and increasing resistance through the water. Regular antifouling maintenance helps reduce fouling and keeps the underwater surfaces properly protected.
Before applying new antifouling, we assess the existing coating and the condition of the hull to determine the preparation required.
Professional Antifouling Application
Correct surface preparation is essential for antifouling performance. Depending on the condition of the hull, the process may include cleaning, sanding, removal of loose or deteriorated coatings and application of the appropriate primer where required.
The antifouling is then applied according to the selected product system and manufacturer’s specifications, with particular attention to areas exposed to greater wear.
The Right Antifouling System for Your Boat
The most suitable antifouling depends on factors such as the type of vessel, existing coating, cruising conditions and maintenance schedule. We can assess your boat and recommend an appropriate system rather than applying the same solution to every hull.
Spray Painting for Boats and Yachts
Spray painting can provide a smooth, uniform and high-quality finish on hulls, topsides, superstructures and other exterior surfaces of boats and yachts.
Achieving a professional spray-painted finish depends not only on the application itself, but also on careful surface preparation, the correct paint system and suitable application conditions.
We carry out spray painting for complete repaints, colour changes, localized repairs and refinishing projects, using professional marine coatings and adapting the process to the vessel, the existing surface and the finish required.
Experience and Attention to Detail in Every Paint Project
Every paint project begins with an assessment of the vessel, the condition of the surfaces and the finish the client wants to achieve. We adapt the preparation and application process to the requirements of each project, from localized paint repairs to complete exterior repaints.
Particular attention is given to surface preparation, finishing and final details, with the aim of achieving a professional and durable result. We undertake exterior painting projects on hulls, topsides and superstructures and can coordinate related refit work when required as part of the project.
