Epifanes satin-gloss 2K Yacht Paint in colour
At Polyestershoppen, Epifanes yacht paint is available in almost any desired colour. In addition to the 24 standard colours (800 numbers), you can choose from RAL, NCS, AWL-Grip and other colour systems. Use the colour picker to select your ideal colour.

Applications Epifanes Polyurethane Yacht Paint
Epifanes Polyurethane Yacht Paint is suitable for use as a satin-gloss topcoat for pre-treated surfaces such as polyester, steel, aluminum or wood. Always use the correct primer for optimum adhesion or apply the paint directly to pre-treated polyester. This yacht paint can also serve as a transition layer between (wood) epoxy and a one-component varnish. You can also use it to maintain existing two-component topcoats.

Directions for use
Follow the instructions below to correctly apply the 2-component yacht paint:
- Degrease the entire surface, then sand with P180 grit and degrease again.
- Prepare the surface with the correct primer (consult the technical documentation for guidance).
- Sand the surface with P240 grit paper.
- Open the Epifanes Polyurethane Yacht Paint and stir well with a mixing spatula.
- Weigh the paint in the correct mixing ratio (2:1 by weight) and mix both components well together.
- Allow the yacht paint to pre-react for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Apply the first coat of Polyurethane paint with a foam roller and make sure you have enough of this at home. Apply it fully for a good protective layer thickness and lightly smooth the surface with a brush.
- Allow the yacht paint to cure for 24 hours and then sand the surface with P400-grit paper.
- Now apply 2-3 more coats in the same way.
- After the last coat, let the varnish cure completely for 7 days.

Product properties
The key technical properties clearly listed in one place.
- Article number
- LAK002097
-
Gloss level indicates how much light a dry paint or coating reflects and how the finished surface looks.
- Matt: little reflection and a subdued appearance.
- Satin: a gentle sheen between matt and high gloss.
- High gloss: stronger reflections and a more pronounced colour, although surface imperfections may become more visible.
Gloss can be measured in gloss units (GU) at a specified angle. Terms such as matt and satin do not necessarily mean exactly the same thing across manufacturers. Substrate condition and application also affect the final appearance.
- Silk gloss / Satin
-
The technical product category, such as primer, resin, hardener or cleaner. It explains the product's purpose and helps you find other products with a similar function.
- 2K paint
-
Minimum application temperature is the lowest temperature at which a product may be used according to the manufacturer. The limit can apply to the air, substrate and product itself.
At lower temperatures, resins and coatings can become thicker and cure more slowly. Moisture can also condense on a cold substrate and reduce adhesion. Check the dew point and measure the surface temperature before starting. A longer drying time does not automatically make application below the specified minimum acceptable.
- 12 °C
-
The recommended layer thickness is the thickness at which you apply each coat of paint, coating or resin. It is usually given in micrometres (µm) or millimetres (mm).
- Wet film thickness: the thickness immediately after application.
- Dry film thickness: the thickness after drying or curing.
For a coating with 60% solids by volume, a wet film of 100 µm will theoretically produce a dry film of approximately 60 µm. Film thickness affects coverage, protection and drying. Always check whether the manufacturer specifies wet or dry film thickness.
- 60-70 µm wet (= 30-35 µm dry)
-
Density describes the mass of a material per unit volume. Values may be given in g/cm³, kg/L or kg/m³; 1 g/cm³ equals 1 kg/L. For example, one litre of a liquid with a density of 1.2 kg/L weighs approximately 1.2 kg. Density helps convert between weight and volume, but it can vary with temperature.
- 1.1-1.3 kg/dm³
-
Humidity during application is given as relative humidity, usually in percent (% RH). It indicates how much water vapour the air contains compared with the maximum it can hold at that temperature. Excessive humidity can interfere with drying or adhesion of some coatings. Also check that the substrate is dry enough and free from condensation.
- 50% - 85%
-
The overcoating interval tells you when the next layer of paint, varnish or coating may be applied. Many multi-coat systems specify both a minimum and a maximum interval:
- Minimum overcoating time: the previous layer is dry or cured enough to accept another coat.
- Maximum overcoating time: the period during which the next coat can bond without extra surface preparation under the stated conditions.
Overcoating too early can affect drying or the finish. Once the maximum interval has passed, cleaning and sanding may be needed to ensure adhesion between coats. Temperature and film thickness affect the waiting times.
- 1 day (20 °C)
-
A paint or varnish layer is dust-dry when settling dust is less likely to stick to the surface. It may not yet be touch-dry, ready for overcoating or suitable for loading; these are different stages of drying and curing.
- 2 hours (20 °C)
-
Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
- 12 m²/kg
-
A specific thinner that can be used, where permitted, to adjust a product's application properties or viscosity. The correct thinner and maximum quantity depend on the product. Incorrect thinning can affect coverage, drying and curing.

- Net contents
- 3 kg
-
Working time is the period during which a product remains workable after mixing or activation, usually given in minutes at a specified temperature, often 20 °C. With reactive resins, the chemical reaction also continues in the mixing container, and larger quantities or higher temperatures can shorten this time. Working time is different from gel time and full curing time.
- Approximately 180-240 minutes (at 20 °C)
-
VOC content (volatile organic compounds) indicates the amount of these substances in a product, usually expressed in g/L (grams per litre). They may evaporate during application and drying. The value describes the composition, but actual exposure also depends on how much is used, ventilation and the application method.
- 433 g/L
