Create a glossy, protective barrier over your gelcoat with our polish and wax service.
- Polishing removes oxidation, stains, and minor imperfections, restoring the original gloss and depth of color to the gelcoat surface. This process smooths out microscopic pores, making the surface highly reflective for a sleek appearance and allowing the wax to bond effectively.
- Waxing is the final protective step. Marine-grade wax forms a sacrificial layer that shields the gelcoat from harmful UV rays, saltwater, dirt, and other environmental contaminants. This barrier not only locks in a brilliant shine but also slows down fading and oxidation by deflecting sunlight and UV radiation.
- UV protection is particularly crucial, as unprotected gelcoat can quickly oxidize, become chalky, and lose its color under constant sun exposure. Regular waxing keeps the finish vibrant and prolongs the life of both the gelcoat and underlying fiberglass.
- Hydrophobic properties from waxing make cleaning easier, as water beads off and dirt has a harder time sticking, helping maintain both appearance and protection with less maintenance needed.
- Long-term benefits include reduced likelihood of surface damage, easier routine cleaning, extended surface longevity, and preserved resale value by keeping the boat's finish in top condition.
