✍️ Do the edges of the boat wrap need to be sealed?
A question we're often asked: Do the edges of the film on the boat need to be additionally sealed? We'll give you an honest answer—including a professional tip for maximum durability and protection.
💡 Why edge sealing makes sense
The edges of the film are the most sensitive areas of any film – especially on boats that are constantly exposed to sun, water, salt and wind. A sealant effectively protects the edges from:
- ☀️ UV radiation and fading
- 🌊 penetrating moisture and dirt
- 🌀 mechanical stress due to cleaning or waves
⚠️ When is sealing mandatory?
We strongly recommend professional sealing, especially for edges that are subject to heavy wear and tear – such as the bow, the waterline (above water) or flaps. It ensures that the film does not come loose or fray prematurely.
