Recreational Coatings for RVs, Boats, Motorcycles & More
ARV Coatings provides high-performance recreational coatings designed to protect your personal vehicles, marine equipment, trailers, and outdoor gear from harsh Australian conditions. Whether you’re an off-road adventurer, boating enthusiast, or looking to preserve your caravan or motorcycle, our durable RV protective coating and marine & protective coatings deliver long-lasting surface protection that stands up to UV, moisture, salt, and wear.
From marine deck coating to motorcycle protective coating, we offer tailored solutions for recreational and leisure applications where both performance and aesthetics matter.

Designed to Withstand the Elements
Australia’s climate can take a toll on recreational gear. From blazing sun to coastal air, wet tracks to red dust, unprotected surfaces degrade quickly. Our recreational coatings are engineered to protect your investment, keeping it looking better, performing longer, and requiring less upkeep.

- UV-stable and resistant to fading and cracking
- 100% waterproof for marine and high-moisture environments
- Impact and abrasion resistant for off-road use
- Non-porous, easy to clean, and non-slip (if required)
- Ideal for application on metal, fibreglass, plastic, or wood
Whether you’re preparing for a long-haul road trip or a weekend on the water, our protective coatings ensure your gear is up to the task.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an RV protective coating?
RV protective coating refers to a durable, spray-on layer applied to caravans and campers to protect them from rust, stone chips, moisture, and UV exposure. It’s commonly used on underbodies, front panels, and toolboxes to extend the life of your recreational vehicle.
Do you apply marine & protective coatings for boats?
Yes. We coat boat hulls, decks, and trailers using waterproof, UV-stable polyurea systems. These coatings resist saltwater damage, prevent corrosion, and can be applied with a non-slip texture for safety.
Can you coat playground equipment?
Absolutely. We apply tough, non-toxic playground coatings to climbing frames, railings, and safety features. These coatings protect against rust, chipping, and fading caused by constant exposure to the sun and rain.
What surfaces can be coated on motorcycles?
We offer motorcycle protective coating services for frames, guards, pannier racks, and accessories. The coating protects against chips, vibration, water, and sun damage, while maintaining a rugged finish.
Are recreational coatings waterproof?
Yes. Our coatings form a seamless, waterproof barrier that prevents moisture ingress, making them ideal for marine environments and wet-weather exposure.
Do you offer non-slip marine deck coating?
Yes. Our marine deck coating options include non-slip textures for boat decks, swim platforms, and stairs. These coatings improve safety while withstanding water and sun exposure.
How long do recreational coatings last?
With proper preparation and application, our coatings can last for many years, often for the life of the vehicle or equipment. They resist peeling, cracking, and UV degradation over time.
Will the coating affect the appearance of my recreational vehicle?
Our coatings provide a clean, consistent finish. While they are typically applied in a rugged matte texture, colour options and surface profiles can be discussed based on your preferences.
Can I bring in my trailer or jet ski for coating?
Yes. You can bring trailers, jet skis, toolboxes, or other items directly to our Melbourne facility. We’ll assess them on-site and apply the appropriate protective coating.
