Marine paint for skai, faux leather, vinyl, polyurethane...

Recolouring marine upholstery in synthetic materials: vinyl, skai (or faux leather) for boats

High-adhesion paints

As experts in renovating nautical upholstery, we offer two types of paint specially designed for repainting the upholstery of all types of boat.
These paints, available in aerosol and in bottle, are anti-UV, easy to apply, and respect the grain of the material, ensuring a lasting and attractive restoration.

Aerosol Paint

Practical and quick, aerosol paint allows an even application. It is ideal for touch-ups and complete renovations, guaranteeing effective protection against UV rays and offering a professional finish.

Bottled Paint

Bottled paint, for its part, is applied with a spray gun or a roller. This method allows precise application and is suited to surfaces of different sizes, while ensuring lasting protection against the elements.

Why use our paints for marine upholstery?

1. Colour restoration: Over time, the colours of skai coverings can fade under the effect of UV rays. Our paints are designed to give synthetic materials back their original shine. They penetrate deeply for an even and lasting colour, giving your seats and armchairs a like-new appearance.
   
   
2. UV protection: As well as colouring, our paints offer effective protection against UV rays. This anti-UV barrier prevents premature ageing and fading, ensuring that your upholstery stays beautiful and vibrant for longer, even in intense sun.
   
   
3. Durability and resistance: Our products are designed to withstand the most demanding marine conditions. They form a protective layer that helps prevent wear and damage caused by friction, humidity and sea water. Your coverings therefore keep their integrity and appearance over time.
   
   
4. Ease of application: Our paints for nautical upholstery are easy to apply, even for beginners. They adhere perfectly to faux leather and skai surfaces, guaranteeing an application with no streaks or imperfections. You can therefore renovate your coverings quickly and effortlessly.
   
   
5. Wide range of colours: To suit all tastes and styles, our paints are available in a vast palette of colours. Whether you want to keep the original colour of your seats or opt for a radical change, you will find the perfect shade for your project.
   
   
6. Economic advantage: Repainting your nautical upholstery with Sofolk skai paints offers significant economic advantages. Rather than replacing the upholstery entirely, which can be costly and laborious, paint lets you restore the original appearance or change colour according to your preferences. What's more, it is perfect for covering stubborn stains that no longer come out, thus extending the life of your synthetic leather upholstery.

How do you apply our paints for nautical upholstery?

To achieve the best results, follow these simple steps when applying our paints:

1. Surface preparation: Clean your coverings thoroughly to remove dirt, grease and residue. Use a suitable degreaser such as the Sofolk Leather Degreaser.
   
   
2. Protecting adjacent areas: Cover the parts of the boat and the items you do not want to paint with masking tape and protective paper.
   
   
3. Applying the paint: Apply the paint in thin, even coats using a brush, a roller or a spray gun. Leave to dry between each coat according to the instructions provided.
   
   
4. Finishing: For a perfect finish and a longer life, apply several coats of varnish for nautical upholstery after the paint. This varnish will add an extra layer of protection against UV rays and wear.

Thanks to our paints specially designed for faux leather marine upholstery, you can not only restore the beauty of your seats and armchairs, but also protect them effectively against the elements. Give your boat a new lease of life and enjoy your days at sea with bright, durable upholstery.
