SAND BLASTING
Yachtfinishingsupport works with several different types of blasting equipment to utilize the most appropriate for the job. Our equipment consists of several open blasting pots. Grit recovery systems and vacuum blasting for delicate areas that need to be clean like engine rooms and bilge areas. Our experienced and certified team has spent many years working on yachts and they are fully aware of the high standards and cleanliness they must achieve. Using a fully qualified paint inspector at every stage you can be guaranteed a first-class job that meets all standards with a full report and pictures at every stage.
ANTIFOUL REMOVAL
From a sweep blast to a full systems removal back to bare metal you can be assured Yachtfinishingsupport can perform this work to a very high standard. Yachtfinishingsupport has worked on many yachts removing the antifoul and applying a full system.
TANK COATING REMOVAL AND APPLICATION
With many years experience working on different types of tanks Yachtfinishingsupport will be happy to offer advice on the best way to safely access the tank and the best coatings to apply for your particular application. Tank work needs to be followed using strict protocols. From the humidity to the blast profile Yachtfinishingsupport will document and report every stage with a sign-off from the inspector. A method of work is produced for every job so that you can be sure you are happy with the way the works are being carried out.
ENGINE ROOM AND BILGES
Would you like your engine room to look new?
Yachtfinishingsupport has worked in many engine rooms. Our director is an ex-chief engineer on 70 meters+ yachts. We understand the sensitive areas and safety issues that need to be followed to produce a top-class job. We can use our vacuum blasters to make sure the aggregate is contained as much as possible. Bilges can be brought back to new and engines and auxiliary equipment can be sanded or blasted if need be, masked up, and sprayed. At all stages, our foreman will liaise with the engineers to qualify the areas that are being worked in so that you can be confident a full safety procedure is being followed and any other works are not being impacted.
