How Salt Air Affects Paint in Sunset Beach

Sunset Beach has some of the most direct coastal salt air exposure of any established Cape Town suburb. The narrow strip between Table Bay and the Milnerton lagoon means every property is within reach of salt air from at least one side.

Sea Side vs Lagoon Side

Properties on the Table Bay-facing western side of Marine Drive face open ocean salt conditions - comparable to beachfront Bloubergstrand. Properties on the lagoon-facing eastern side receive salt air from the lagoon and reflected Table Bay exposure. For all Sunset Beach properties, premium coastal products without exception. Elastomeric coating systems for the most exposed beachfront positions. See our paint products guide.

Anti-Rust Priority

Unprotected metal corrodes fast in Sunset Beach. Inspect every four to six months. Two-pack epoxy primer recommended for beachfront metalwork. See our anti-rust guide.
