We specialise in the finishing and refinishing of unique superyachts and are committed to delivering every project perfectly. we only use top quality products and the most skilled craftspeople in the business.
Renovation not only brings back the shine but also reinforces the protection of the yacht. we approach the refinishing process with the utmost due care and attention. following our extensive quality standards procedure means our client receives excellent levels of service.
Nautipaints’ varnishing division works on both interior and exterior surfaces. cherry, cedar, oak, or teak, whatever it is our highly skilled specialist teams will return it to its natural beauty.
When a refinish is not needed, but a beauty “touch up” is in order. we offer repairs to painted and varnished areas either onboard wherever the yacht is based or in our spray cabins in our workshops in palma.
From the moment we receive a request from a client or partner through to the completion of the project we have precise and measurable guidelines that we work to. We work with our client through their initial brief, the planning and budget stages, to the actual delivery of the work, using our quality management markers and then the final review where we detail every stage and report back on the completion of the works.
Transparency in our communication and regular reporting are vital to ensure client satisfaction and a harmonious partnership. We endeavour to make the process as smooth as your new paint finish.

Our quality control process is run independently from the other Nautipaints’ departments. The frequency of inspections depends on the individual project but it can range from daily to three times a week. In addition to quality control inspections, the assigned contract manager will regularly visit and communicate with the client throughout the work to ensure satisfaction.
The required surface preparation parameters are ensured by our experienced and qualified internal quality control personnel who are provided with all of the necessary inspection tools following international standards and duly calibrated.
We offer project documentation, ITP Inspection Test Plans, and simple or complete reports. We can provide qualified NACE/FROSIO/RMCI 3rd party inspection if required. Throughout the works we continuously check and note the following:
