HELO YACHT Yacht varnish
HELO YACHT yacht varnish is a fast drying urethane/alkyd based varnish with good resistance properties. Finish: full gloss.
HELO YACHT provides excellent resistance to action by weather and water. The varnish film has good gloss retention and does not crack or disintegrate. The varnish contains UV absorber, and therefore the resultant coat yellows very little. The varnish does not yellow even in sea water. It protects the woodwork against greying and cracking.
The varnish film is hard and at the same time elastic and thus withstands abrasion and impacts. Detergents, grease or oil do not damage it.
Examples of uses are yachts, furniture and other woodwork whenever a durable varnish coat is desired.
