Yamaha Outboard Engine Cowling Spray Paint – EB White Pearlescent Clear Coat (Part B) – 12 oz Aerosol

When restoring or touching up your Yamaha outboard cowling, matching the finish isn’t just about looks—it’s about quality and protection.

Why It Matters

Outboard cowlings take a beating from salt spray, sun, fuel drips, and dock rash. A quality clear coat does more than make your motor shine—it protects it. This Yamaha pearlescent top coat locks in color, repels UV damage, and gives your cowling a polished, professional look that lasts.

Whether you're restoring a scratched surface or doing a full repaint, using the factory-matched paint system ensures the result won’t just look good—it will hold up on the water.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Can I use this clear coat without the base coat?
No. This product is designed to be applied over Yamaha Part A base coat (EB White). Skipping the base may result in poor adhesion or incorrect finish.

→ How do I prep the cowling before painting?
Clean the surface thoroughly, sand lightly if needed, and make sure it’s dry and free from oils or residue. Apply the base coat first, then this clear coat after the base has flashed off (per Yamaha’s instructions).

→ What's the right way to paint an outboard motor cowling?
The best results come from a two-step system: apply the OEM base color (Part A), let it flash, then follow with this pearlescent clear coat (Part B). Always work in a well-ventilated area and follow Yamaha’s paint guidelines for prep, layering, and drying times.
