Sealing Gelcoat with BCC Power Sealer – Long-Term Protection for Maximum Shine

A perfectly polished gelcoat is only half the battle.
Without protection, oxidation begins faster than many people think – especially with strong UV radiation, saltwater, and long periods moored in the harbor.

If you want to protect your boat long-term, you should seal the gelcoat – and do so with a product specifically developed for marine surfaces: the BCC Power Sealer.

Why is gelcoat sealing so important?

After polishing, the surface is:

  • porous
  • sensitive to UV radiation
  • prone to dirt adhesion
  • less water-repellent

Without sealing, even a freshly restored surface quickly loses its shine.

A high-quality sealant:

✔ reduces new oxidation
✔ protects against UV radiation
✔ makes cleaning easier
✔ extends polishing intervals
✔ increases value retention

What makes BCC Power Sealer special?

The BCC Power Sealer was specially developed for gelcoat and painted surfaces of boats and caravans.

Its strengths:

✨ Deep, rich shine
🛡️ Strong UV protection
💧 Significantly improved water repellency
🧼 Less dirt adhesion
⏳ Long-lasting protection

Unlike simple waxes, the Power Sealer forms a durable protective layer that lasts significantly longer.

How to seal gelcoat correctly – Step by step

For the protection to fully unfold its effect, proper preparation is crucial.

1️⃣ Thoroughly clean the surface

Remove dirt, salt, and polish residues completely with the BCC Power Cleaner.

2️⃣ Polish gelcoat if necessary

For dull surfaces, first polish away oxidized layers.

3️⃣ Apply Power Sealer thinly

Distribute evenly with a soft applicator pad.

4️⃣ Allow to flash off

Wait a few minutes depending on the temperature.

5️⃣ Buff with microfiber

For streak-free high gloss.

How long does gelcoat sealing last?

Depending on use and maintenance:

  • 4–6 months with normal use

  • Longer with indoor storage

  • Shorter with continuous saltwater exposure

Regular reapplication ensures constant protection.

Wax or sealant – what's better?

Many boat owners still rely on traditional wax.
The difference:

Wax BCC Power Sealer
shorter durability longer lasting protection
lower UV protection intensive UV protection

For long-term thinking, opt for sealant instead of just wax.
