I'm pleased to announce the first boat coating in the Marine 31 line - Captain's Boat Coating with UV50

Marine 31 Captain’s Boat Coating with UV50 provides longer lasting protection than any conventional wax or polymer sealant. Formulated using a complex blend of quartz-based particles, this state-of-the-art boat coating provides superior resistance to UV rays, salt degradation, and other common contaminants that plague a boat from every day use. Compared to a traditional wax that only lasts a couple months, Marine 31 Captain’s Boat Coating provides protection measured in years!

How does this compare with the new Blackfire coating if it will be used on a car?

I answered the same question in another thread:



Has there been much real world testing on it? What is expected for longevity and how well does it shed scum off the bottom of the boat?

My boat isn't bad since it isn't kept in the water, but my in laws keep theirs in a slip in Wisconsin all summer. They've got a red stripe and some trim that fades to chalk in no time at all on the side that faces the sun. Will this coating help much?

Plenty of real world testing (we have a massive marina next door to us after all). It makes the boat VERY easy to clean - hardly anything will stick to it.


Ok Nick, I have to ask this, because we know someone is going to try it...what happens if you use this on a car?

After all, we know there are some marine products that auto enthusiasts use regularly (DG501 comes to mind) and of course in the old days when you couldn't buy Collinite here at AG, where did you go to get some?--the boat store! Not to mention you might see FK1000 there.

Gel coat is far more porous than paint, and that was considered during the formulation of Captain's Boat Coating. You can use it on automotive paint, but you'll find that it tends to smear when you level any high spots. When used on gel coat it's a breeze to apply. :dblthumb2:
