Professional Boat Bottom Paint
Services in St. Petersburg

Keep barnacles, algae, and marine growth off your hull all season long. We prep, apply, and protect with the right antifouling paint for Tampa Bay and Boca Ciega Bay.

The Right Bottom Paint Makes All the Difference

St. Petersburg sits right on Tampa Bay — some of the most biologically active waters in Florida. The warm, nutrient-rich conditions mean barnacles, zebra mussels, and algae growth happen fast, and an unprotected hull can foul up in a matter of weeks.

JG Coastal Marine Services provides complete bottom paint services in St. Petersburg, FL, from hull sanding and prep to full antifouling application. Whether your boat lives at Demens Landing, Bayboro Harbor, or a private slip, we’ll keep your hull clean all season.

Bottom Paint Services We Offer

Full Hull Prep & Sanding

Proper surface prep is the key to lasting paint adhesion. We clean, sand, and degrease your hull before any product goes on.

Antifouling Paint Application

Professional application of ablative or hard antifouling paint tailored to your usage pattern — weekend warrior or liveaboard.

Barrier Coat Application

Epoxy barrier coat applied to new boats or blistered hulls to create a watertight foundation before antifouling paint.

Bottom Paint Removal

Old, built-up paint stripped back to bare fiberglass using chemical strippers and mechanical sanding for a fresh start.

Blister Treatment

Osmotic blisters ground out, dried, filled, and barrier-coated before repainting — the proper way to address hull blistering.

Racing & Speed Bottom

Burnished hard paint or no-bottom-paint polish for performance boats where bottom friction matters.

Waterline Painting

Clean, sharp waterline stripes reapplied or repainted as part of a full hull refresh or bottom paint job.

Annual bottom inspection, pressure wash, light sanding, and recoat to keep your antifouling protection at peak effectiveness.

Our Bottom Paint Process
1

Haul & Inspect

We haul your boat, pressure wash the hull, and assess the existing paint condition before recommending a paint plan.

2

Prep & Sand

Hull is sanded to the appropriate grit, degreased, and any gelcoat repairs made before painting begins.

3

Paint Application

Barrier coat and/or antifouling paint applied in even, full-coverage coats for maximum protection.

4

Launch Ready

Paint cured and hull inspected. Your boat is ready to go back in the water protected for the season ahead.
