FLYT is an advanced aviation ceramic coating engineered to protect aircraft paint, exterior surfaces, and exposed components from UV radiation, oxidation, environmental contaminants, moisture, and operational pollutants.
Developed and manufactured by Kovalent Coatings, FLYT uses high-concentration, ultra-pure silica nanoparticles to create a durable protective layer that enhances hydrophobic performance, improves appearance, and simplifies aircraft maintenance.
FLYT has been specifically developed for aviation environments, where aircraft are exposed to extreme UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, airborne contaminants, hydraulic residues, and operational pollutants.
Unlike conventional automotive ceramic coatings, FLYT is engineered to address the unique maintenance and environmental challenges faced by aircraft owners, operators, and maintenance professionals.
Yes.
FLYT has been independently evaluated against the Boeing BSS7432 requirements for aviation maintenance materials and demonstrated conformity with:
- Corrosion Testing
- Acrylic Compatibility Testing
- Paint Softening Testing
- Hydrogen Embrittlement Testing
This independent evaluation provides additional confidence for aircraft owners, operators, and aviation maintenance professionals.
FLYT provides:
- Long-term paint protection
- UV resistance
- Oxidation resistance
- Advanced hydrophobic performance
- Easier cleaning and maintenance
- Enhanced gloss and appearance
- Protection from environmental contaminants
- Improved surface cleanliness
Yes.
Aircraft spend significant time exposed to direct sunlight, especially when parked outdoors. Prolonged UV exposure can contribute to paint fading, oxidation, and deterioration.
FLYT provides an additional protective barrier that helps reduce the effects of long-term UV exposure on aircraft paintwork.
Yes.
FLYT is engineered for demanding aviation environments where aircraft routinely experience significant temperature changes between ground operations and high-altitude flight.
Yes.
FLYT helps resist many chemical and environmental contaminants encountered during aircraft operation and maintenance, helping to preserve paintwork and simplify cleaning.
Yes.
FLYT helps protect aircraft paintwork from bird droppings, industrial fallout, environmental pollutants, and airborne contamination that can stain, etch, or degrade paint finishes.
Its hydrophobic properties help reduce contaminant adhesion, making routine cleaning easier.
Yes.
FLYT creates a highly hydrophobic coating layer that encourages water to bead and run off the surface.
This helps reduce water retention, contamination buildup, and maintenance effort.
Hydrophobic performance helps water, dirt, insects, and contaminants release more easily from aircraft exterior surfaces.
This simplifies cleaning procedures and helps maintain a cleaner aircraft between wash cycles.
Yes.
One of the key benefits of FLYT is easier maintenance. Its slick, hydrophobic coating layer helps reduce contaminant adhesion, making routine washing more efficient.
Yes.
By making contaminants easier to remove, FLYT can help reduce cleaning time and improve maintenance efficiency.
FLYT is designed for painted surfaces only. We recommend doing a test patch before full application.
A trained Kovalent installer can determine the most suitable application process.
Yes.
FLYT is designed to be applied over properly prepared aircraft paint systems to enhance protection and improve long-term appearance retention.
FLYT enhances the existing appearance of the aircraft without altering its original colour or finish.
The coating can improve gloss, clarity, and overall visual appeal while maintaining the aircraft's original appearance.
No.
FLYT is applied as an ultra-thin ceramic coating (3-5 microns per layer) and adds only a negligible amount of weight when professionally installed.
FLYT is designed to function as a protective coating and is not intended to alter aircraft performance or aerodynamic characteristics.
Yes.
FLYT is formulated, manufactured, and tested by Kovalent Coatings.
Our in-house manufacturing and research capabilities allow us to maintain strict quality standards and continuously advance ceramic coating technology.
FLYT is a professional aviation coating and should be applied by trained and approved installers.
Professional installation ensures optimal coating performance, durability, and appearance.
FLYT is backed by a 3-year product warranty when applied by an approved installer and maintained in accordance with Kovalent Coatings' recommended maintenance guidelines.
The longevity of FLYT may vary depending on aircraft usage, environmental exposure, maintenance practices, operating conditions, and application quality.
For complete warranty coverage, terms, and requirements, please refer to the official FLYT warranty documentation.
Yes.
FLYT is supported by Kovalent Coatings' 3-year warranty program, subject to product registration, approved installation procedures, and ongoing maintenance requirements.
For full warranty terms and conditions, please refer to the official warranty documentation provided by Kovalent Coatings.
Traditional waxes and sealants typically provide short-term protection and require frequent reapplication.
FLYT uses advanced ceramic coating technology and high-concentration, ultra-pure silica nanoparticles to create a durable protective layer engineered specifically for aviation environments.
Combined with advanced hydrophobic performance, UV resistance, simplified maintenance, a 3-year warranty, and Boeing BSS7432 evaluation, FLYT provides a comprehensive aircraft paint protection solution.
Yes.
FLYT is ideal for private jets, corporate aircraft, and business aviation fleets where paint protection, appearance retention, and maintenance efficiency are important priorities.
Yes.
