Sandefjord, Norway, January 2025. Building on its success with MegaGloss AC and MegaGloss HG, Jotun is expanding its MegaGloss range to include MegaGloss BC – a supreme high gloss basecoat, clearcoat system, available in metallic and solid tailor-made colours.
Jotun’s MegaGloss product range delivers a GlassTouch finish, a wet look appearance that feels like glass to the touch and a gloss level that can last up to twice as long as traditional yachting topcoats. Its appearance offers such high gloss levels that it looks wet, even before the yacht enters the water. MegaGloss offers a gloss retention guaranteed for up to 48 months, ensuring every detail is reflected in the quality of your yacht, year upon year.
Jotun Yachting Category Manager, Tracey Warner, said: “With designers and owners’ teams making more adventurous choices of colour on both the hull and superstructure, the requirement for a basecoat clearcoat system is crucial. The new MegaGloss BC system provides unlimited colours and enhanced application properties compared to traditional topcoats. Due to faster drying and curing times, yards can also optimize their paint scheduling.
Tracey added: “It is the combination of shape of the vessel, colour and gloss that gives people their first impression. The choice of topcoat is extremely important as it represents the quality of the entire paint job. It is key for captains, crew and owners’ teams that this finish will ensure a long maintenance interval and, in case of damage, easy to repair.”
In addition to topcoats, Jotun offer a full range of products, combining complete corrosion protection with market leading anti-fouling, versatile primers, and a wide range of fillers and tank coatings to meet the needs of every yacht.
