Why Choose Supermarine Paint?

Value: Supermarine Marine Paint products offer exceptional value to professional marine paint buyers as well as do-it-yourself boat and yacht paint shoppers. Supermarine Marine Paint products are sold factory direct circumventing the traditional lines of distribution saving money the user significant expense. Traditional lines of distribution include layer upon layer of middlemen driving up costs. Eliminating multiple layers of distribution keeps our prices low and quality high!  Supermarine Marine Paints are produced by Top Secret Coatings, a supplier to the U.S. Government and military. The majority of Supermarine paint products are consumer labeled products produced by Top Secret Coatings for the U.S. government and MIL SPEC applications. We aren’t aware of any other marine paint manufacturers making these exclusive products available to the public.

Performance: Why bother talking about hardness, chemical resistance or color and gloss retention if the marine coatings you choose won’t adhere or blister when wet? As an example; Awlgrip Professional Marine Paints is an industry leading marine paint brand name but if it is submerged or water is trapped between itself and canvas it quickly blisters and fails. Owners expect professional marine paints to be water resistant! Most Supermarine Marine Paint products are long term submersible eliminating the worry of blistering due to such everyday, real world experiences as tarps coming in contact with painted marine surfaces. Revolution (SM-1000) recently underwent a long term submersion durability testing commissioned by Siemens and Westinghouse. Revolution was found to withstand constant submersion for more than 40 years which is outstanding performance by any measure. Moreover, Awlgrip Professional Marine Paint is well known and well-liked for its leveling properties, however, Revolution levels as well or better than Awlgrip, it spreads significantly further and is considerably less expensive making it a better overall value. 

Advanced technology: Many marine paint manufacturers offer outdated formulas decades old. Rapid advances in modern marine coatings technology make these outdated formulas a poor choice, for performance, value and environmental reasons. Recent advances in modern marine coatings technology including corrosion control components, leveling properties, color and gloss retention additives and adhesion elements make selecting boat paint products with up to date formulations essential.

Made in The U.S.A.: The United States of America is the world’s source for cutting edge protective coatings technology and premium marine paint products. However, recently many paint distributors are importing cheaply made foreign paint products from Asian marine paint manufacturers. We are amazed to see unrealistic performance claims and extended warranties offered on inferior imported protective coatings! Supermarine Marine Paint products are made right here in the U.S.A. You can bet that if it doesn’t say MADE IN THE U.S.A. it’s probably a cheap import.
