Zytexx not only protects the paint from soot... contamination, it also prevents the soot staining in the first place and makes wash downs easy again.

72 mtr Damien Yacht returns for full Zytexx protection
It's always really satisfying when boats come to us initially to assist with a problem area and after a few months of our product proving its worth, the boat returns to have the whole Hull and Su...perstructure protected too by Zytexx. Returning clients are always a good indication of whether our products are working or not. You wouldn't believe how many times boats ask us to 'fix' a competitors failed product. Our philosophy is: it doesn't matter if you've had our competitors product put on and it failed, let us fix it for you!

Do you know why it's so difficult to clean exhaust areas and how easy we can fix this for you?
So why can't you just wash away the exhaust soot? Here's the tech stuff... When the engines are on, the exhaust area gets very hot, the paint around this area expands/opens, leaving it ver...y porous. Soot embeds within those 'pores' and when the engines turn off/cool down, the paint cools/contracts, sealing the soot in. No amount of cleaning will get rid of this as the soot isn't on the surface. It's become part of the paint, the only way to get rid of this is to polish it out. The problem is, if you do this without sealing the paint, next time you turn the engines on you'll have the same problem. Plus each time you polish, you thin the paint out. Here's how we fix it:- We polish it back removing the soot and then apply our ceramic clearcoat: which seals the paint and creates a smooth, shiny surface Zytexx prevents it becoming porous again (because our ceramic heats at a higher temperature than the paint) sealing in those microscopic cavities and becoming virtually impossible to stain. Washdowns become easy again. Your boat is ready for guests, with unsightly areas gone! Don't take our word for it, check our our testimonials! It's not too late, get in touch today!

Testimonials and why they're important!
Anyone can set up a company, create a flash website and put lots of fake pictures and guarantees up there. But how can you discern a fake cowboy company from one thats fully insured, has the experien...ce and warranty to back up its claims? How do you tell the genuine article? Well at Zytexx you'll find on our website the testimonials page giving you authentic testimonials from real captains and yachts. Moreover if you wish to speak to the Captain/boat concerned, we will contact the boat and obtain permission to share their contact info with you. If a website doesn't show testimonials or the company doesn't offer this facility then that's a very big warning sign. Why would you risk a multi million pound yacht without doing some easy research before you engage an unknown company? If it seems too good to be true invariably it is. Beware of impersonators.

Why is Zytexx STILL the number one ceramic clear-coat on the market?
The clear-coat market has grown exponentially since Zytexx was launched over 20 years ago. Why are we still the number one? WE HAVE THE ONLY 20 MICRON COATING ON THE MARKET- none of our competitors... have a 20 micron coating, most offer a 10 or 8 micron coating which is equivalent to our Hand Application (10 microns). But 10 microns will not hold up on the hardest working areas such as exhausts, waterlines, transom doors etc, your biggest headache areas. Simply put, there is only one product for these areas and that's the PG440. WE MAKE OUR OWN PRODUCT - with our own in-house chemists: re-formulating and continually improving our product range we stay ahead of the competition, hence us launching in 2024 our brand new Gel Coat product PG4600 and even better, it's 20 microns. Formulated to take into account the different absorption and porous rates of gel coat boats compared to standard paint. We don't need to convince you, those of you working on gel coat boats already know the issues you face, and our new PG 4600 is giving us some incredible results so far. • OUR PROPRIETORY REMOVAL GEL, when it’s finally time to re-paint, do a repair etc all our Zytexx coatings are easily removed using our removal gel. There’s no more need for sanding and no damage to the existing paintwork. You wouldn't believe how many times we are approached to remove our competitors product! • PROVEN WARRANTY; we stand behind our products and our applicators. • Tried, Tested and Trusted by hundreds of yachts worldwide – our repeat customers and growing fan club are our best asset and they keep coming back to Zytexx time and again. WANT TO TRY FOR YOURSELF? Call us to arrange your FREE TEST PATCH!

Gloss readings were as low as 7 prior to Zytexx and now rea...dings are in the high 80's on this old paint.

Fabulous Grace E Testimonial
Really fabulous testimonial received from the Captain of MY Grace E. Dear Michael, I’d like to take this opportunity on the sale of Grace E to thank you and your team for the work and product ap...plied to Grace E last year. We had continual issues with the hull staining after long passages, and being a large area, began to be quite time consuming for the crew to keep on top of keep looking good. The application of ZYTEXX was a eureka moment, suddenly everything became easier, and additionally the hull finish was gleaming. The buyer of Grace E viewed her less than 48 hrs after arrival in the Caribbean from Gibraltar - had we not had ZYTEXX applied, he may well have been asked to pitch in with a wash down brush to be able to view a clean product. You have a great product and a loyal team, and I’ll look forward to working with you again, Best regards, Eddie Cooney, M/Y Grace E
