Sails are among the most sensitive components of a boat. Mechanical stress (manoeuvres, strong winds) and environmental influences (water, salt) take their toll on all sailcloth, foils and laminates.
Sail & Kite Coating is a two-component sailcloth coating based on chemical nanotechnology. The optically neutral coating extends the service life, increases performance and simplifies handling.
Sail & Kite Coating is an effective protective shield against water, dirt and weather. The surface becomes extremely slippery, reducing friction and making it easier to handle large layers of fabric. Fast drying reduces the formation of mould and mildew stains. Sail & Kite Coating thus significantly increases the life of the fabric.
Smooth, dry sails -> Better aerodynamics -> Optimal performance.
- Improvement of glide by up to 35%.
(Setting, furling or furling of headsail, jib or spinnaker) - Less friction in the mast groove or furling system reduces wear and tear
- Strong impregnating effect with water and dirt repellent effect
- Up to 65% less water absorption saves weight, reduces space requirements and minimises drying time *
- Reduction of mould and mildew stain formation
- Reduced air permeability optimises aerodynamics
- Increased breaking load without increasing fabric weight
- Extremely high durability
- Resistant to cleaning chemicals
- Highly concentrated -> Very economical
- Solvent-free -> No unpleasant odour -> Can be used indoors and outdoors
- Non-flammable -> No hazardous materials -> Free of biocides
- Easy to use
Fields of application:
- Coating of spinnaker, jib and mainsails, furling sails, kite sails, etc....
- Waterproofing of tarpaulins, tents, gazebos, sun sails or awnings
We recommend Sail & Kite Impregnation as a spray impregnation for fabrics that cannot be rolled out over a large area. (Sprayhood, canopies, convertible tops, sunshades, backpacks, sailing clothing, shoes, boat cushions, etc.).
