When it comes to exterior, interior
care and maintenance, boats are very different from
cars. Boats loose their value faster than any
other vehicle, one because the owners are not taught how to properly maintain them and secondly the
elements here in Utah are havoc to their gel-coat,
vinyl, carpets, plastics, wood, chrome, and fiberglass. The high UV radiation of Utahs elevation is a leading cause of damage.
Today's boats are very expensive, and if not taken care
of properly, they can be super expensive to fix. In many cases prevention is far cheaper than repair! I have
the skills, experience and products to care for your
boat. At a minimum, boats should be cared for
once a year.
As you can see, a boats finish will dull
(oxidation) over time, with proper yearly care you can
keep the shine, protection, and new look.

Look at both sides of
this bow - the right side is horrible with oxidation;
the left is polished out and ready for a sealant.

Even white gel coats
will glow! Better yet they are ready to inhibit UV rays
that will destroy a boats gel coat.

Hard water build up, oxidation,
and no UV protection. This needs the full package detail!

You can see closely the
amount of hard water build up, and the total lack of
shine and gloss.

This is how the boat should
look! This is before any gel-coat wax/sealant was used.
Almost ready to hit the water in style.

Close-up shot of the level of shine and
gloss.

You can clearly see
the detail of care in this transformation. Compare this
to the before picture.
