Wood treatments for boats in Mallorca
Wood treatments
At APM Servicios Náuticos, we are experts in applying various wood treatments to boats in Mallorca. Our goal is to extend the durability and lifespan of your boat.
We're talking about a material, wood, which offers many possibilities and, despite the myths, adapts very well to water and is resistant to constant contact with the sea and withstanding the impact of waves. Our experience speaks for itself, as demonstrated by some of our completed projects.
There are different types of varnishes and oils on the market designed to nourish and protect wood, such as oil for tropical wood, teak, polyurethane varnishes, and polyurethane-acrylic blends (gloss and satin). Obviously, the treatment will depend on the type of wood the deck is made of.
In the case of marine-grade plywood, whose sheets are joined with water-resistant glue, they require pretreatment to prevent water saturation and eventual rot.
At APM Nautical Services, we know that to have a perfect, well-maintained boat, it requires special care and attention. This is especially true if the boat is made of wood, as varnishing is the most important treatment for this type of surface.
For proper wood maintenance, it's important to use a varnish that provides comprehensive protection, and to replace any planks that are broken or damaged to prevent water leaks and unwanted accidents while sailing.
