For boats in good condition that need a deep clean and fresh ceramic protection, without the need for polishing or correction.
This service is designed to restore slickness, gloss, and water-beading performance on coated or regularly;maintained boats.
Step 1: We begin by pressure rinsing the vessel using a wide fan tip from a safe distance (24–36 inches) to remove loose salt, debris, and buildup without damaging gelcoat, decals, or trim.
Step 2: We apply Star Brite Sea Safe Wash using a Griot’s Garage Foam Cannon, covering the entire exterior with a thick, even layer of soap and allowing it to dwell to soften grime.
Step 3: Our detailers wash the entire exterior by hand using soft-bristle brushes, working from the top down. We also spot-treat windshields, brows, and bows with Griot’s Garage Bug & Smudge Remover, and use Mr. Clean Magic Erasers around caulk seams, rub rails, and non-skid edges to remove stubborn buildup. Then, the vessel is thoroughly rinsed to remove all soap and residue.
Step 4: We perform a complete decontamination pass using a Griot’s Garage Fine Surface Prep Mitt lubricated with soapy water, removing bonded contaminants like water spots, oxidation film, and surface haze. Once decontamination is complete, the vessel is thoroughly rinsed to remove any remaining soap or loosened debris in preparation for drying.
Step 5: The entire boat is hand-dried using microfiber towels, with extra attention given to tight areas like cleats, hatches, and rail bases to eliminate streaks and prevent trapped moisture.
Step 6: After the boat is fully dry, we apply HydroSerum, a professional-grade ceramic booster, by hand with a microfiber applicator. The product is allowed to dry for 2–5 minutes, or until the surface shows a light rainbow sheen and the towel begins to drag slightly, signaling it’s ready for removal. We then buff it off with a clean microfiber towel to reveal a slick, glossy finish.
Step 7: To complete the service, we clean all glass surfaces using Griot’s Garage Ultra-Premium Glass Cleaner and Imar Strataglass Protective Cleaner for soft vinyl enclosures, such as isinglass or Strata glass, ensuring streak-free clarity without compromising material integrity.
