I would like to change the colour of the newish UV strip on my genoa from light grey to black. Is there a special paint available which would do the job?
North Sails supplied my latest genoa with a painted UV band, but in white. The paint itself is thickish rubbery stuff. Probably no reason why it could not be found in black. Give North a call and ask.
Be careful. Our expensIve North jib with this literally fell apart at the seems under 3 years old. Now resewn and with cloth uv strip added.
PS. Also would be careful of a black uv strip if a laminate sail and somewhere sunny - can apparently over "cook" the glue due to heat. Black laminate race sails typically don't get left hoisted
