As professional Boat painters we are often asked to provide details of what the whole process involves, and naturally people have a few questions as well.
Hopefully this blog will provide a few answers for potential customers, and also be useful to anyone considering doing a paint job themselves.
The featured boat is painted in our colours dated from the 1960's, when we had our own carrying boats.
Hence the rather confusing Company Name, now mostly abbreviated to CTS.
You can find out more about our history on our website at www.canaltransportservices.co.uk.
Incidentally this boat is not owned or operated by CTS. The owner has amibitions to carry freight by water, and we are more than happy to assist with the loan of our colours.

Matt, I've found this very interesting. What would have been more interesting still would have been to have Starcross feautured on it and updated as the job progressed. You might want to consider offering this facility to future customers!
Matt, it is very nice to see the stages of your work. It is reassuring to see that there isn't too much filler under that glossy finish! I am very pleased with the finish and on my travels there have been many occasions where people have stopped to photograph the work you and your team have produced.
Many Thanks!
I've been through all the photographs and concluded that you must have saved time and only painted the port side!
Thank you for your comments Jim and Martin. Sladen, you got me there, think there are pics of the other side on the website.
