Luxury Yacht Aluminum Hull Coating & Anti-Fouling Ablation

Non-destructive laser paint stripping of a 130ft marine aluminum yacht hull at Miami shipyard. Zero hull dimpling.

Project Scale 5,200 sq ft
Primary Substrate 5083-H116 Marine Aluminum Plate & Weld Seams
Laser Hardware 2000W High-Energy Laser with Integrated Particulate Extraction
Key Result 100% Aluminum Mill Thickness Retained
The Operational Problem

The Engineering Challenge

Stripping multi-coat epoxy primer and anti-fouling paint from a 130-foot aluminum hull without damaging original mill thickness or gouging factory weld seams.

Why Conventional Methods Failed:

Abrasive grit blasting presented unacceptable risks of substrate thinning, environmental contamination, or facility shutdown.

The Photonic Solution

Laser Ablation Execution

Precision laser scanning vaporized paint layers cleanly down to bright aluminum with zero structural plate thinning.

Verified Field Results:

✓ Achieved pristine anchor profile for new barrier coat. Completely dry process complied with environmental shipyard standards with zero runoff into coastal waterway.

Third-Party Compliance: Inspected and Certified: Marine Surveyor & Shipyard QC
