Marine Coatings: Textile & Leather

Marine Coatings: Textile & Leather

All boat operators know that their craft is no small investment. Far too often, we spend more time maintaining and cleaning our rigs than we do enjoying them. And when expensive maintenance costs start reminding you that B.O.A.T. too often stands for Break Out Another Thousand, boat ownership can feel burdensome.

Thankfully, here at CJ’s we have a solution for marine textiles and leather that offers unparalleled protection and ease-of-maintenance at a surprisingly reasonable cost. Feynlab Textile & Leather is an extremely durable and hydrophobic silica/fluro based coating. Textile & Leather is ideal for the leather seats, cloth upholstery, and fabric dodgers on your vessel. Treated surfaces are resistant to spills of all kinds, including oils.

The hydrophobic properties of Textile & Leather treatment means that even sugary beverages won’t leave any stains or sticky residue. All it takes is a wipe with a damp rag and you are ready to keep the good times rolling.

Here is a list of the benefits you can expect to enjoy from treated surfaces:

UV Protection

Unfortunately, the quality of a textile has no bearing on its resistance to UV degradation. Indeed, the most expensive leather furnishings are vulnerable to fading and cracking when exposed to direct sunlight. The most obviously vulnerable surfaces in watercraft are the leather cockpit seats, which are exposed to the sun for the entire day. Untreated, these surfaces will require repair or replacement within just a few seasons, leaving you with more time off the water and a hefty bill.

Feynlab Textile & Leather protects block 99% of UV light from affecting the surfaces they are applied too. Treatment is the only way to guarantee that your seats, dodgers, and covers stay beautiful.

Spill Resistance

Nothing beats a cold drink on a hot day, especially when you are on the water. But all it takes is one unexpected wave or a jostle in a busy cockpit to spill a drink on those fancy leather seats. The hydrophobic properties of Textile & Leather treatment means that even sugary beverages won’t leave any stains or sticky residue. All it takes is a wipe with a damp rag and you are ready to keep the good times rolling.

Keep your passengers (and yourself) at ease with Textile & Leather treatment, so you know that cleanup will be easy and spotless.

Mud and Salt Repellence

Muddy shoes are the bane of any boat-owner’s existence. Our treatments will allow you to keep your cool when you see passengers stepping on board with muddy street shoes because you know that your textiles are protected.

We all know that salt water is one of the most corrosive agents on the planet. It often seems like salt water tries to destroy everything it comes into contact with. Feynlab Textile & Leather treatment is so hydrophobic that salt water can’t engage in its insidious behaviour. The coating creates an invisible barrier that protects whatever it is applied to and keeps your boat looking great.
