IT’S ALL IN THE PREPARATION
Ensuring Optimal Results with Pre-Project Testing
Before starting any project, we conduct thorough tests on the paintwork to ensure our products perform flawlessly. Using an Elcometer Gloss Reader, we prepare a test area to measure the surface's gloss levels.
This testing helps us determine the ideal polishing stages and methods tailored to each project, as the best approach varies depending on the condition of the yacht's paint or gel coat.
Additionally, we can perform tests on a yacht to observe how CeraShield's products withstand regular use. This allows the crew to evaluate the protection and effectiveness of our coatings before we proceed with the full project.
ACHIEVING THE BEST RESULTS
Optimising Performance
Gloss units (GU) are measured on a scale of 0-100. 85GU or above is the acceptance criteria for new paint. Our technicians work to this specification to attain a uniform finish parallel to new paint. Once the maximum gloss restoration has been achieved we seal it with one of our range of coatings.
These GU readings are documented on the GA plan of the yacht with both before GU readings and after polish GU readings.
Pinpoint Works
CeraShield use Pinpoint Works system to manage multiple vessels, to track work and progress. Pinpoint works, enhances communication from the start.
