Boat Detailing
During a thorough boat detailing, there will generally be one of us machine buffing and hand waxing the exterior while another of us machine buffs or polishes, then hand waxes anything in the cockpit and deck that needs machine buffing. The entire topsides are thoroughly cleaned, and this includes the seats and upholstery, carpets and/or hard flooring, cup holders, driver instrument panel, bait station, all empty storage spaces under the seats, ski locker, and anything else that makes sense.
The cabin of your boat is not included unless specifically requested, preferably in advance. We could shampoo the carpet, clean hard flooring, wipe down hard surfaces, etc. We mainly like to concentrate our efforts on the exterior and cockpit. Interior boat detailing and engine room cleaning can be done at a reasonable extra cost.
Lightning Auto, Boat & RV Detail uses the very finest polish and buffing compounds specifically designed for fiberglass to bring out the shine of your boat. This, of course, is followed by a thick, even coat of either a marine-grade Carnauba paste wax or a Carnauba-based/high-tech blend fortified with UV inhibitors. Fiberglass takes much more abuse than your car’s paint, and we highly recommend you call us to polish and wax your boat even before it looks like it needs it for the best, most desirable results and protection.
Heavily and even moderately oxidized boats are often difficult to bring back when allowed to deteriorate for too long, and colored fiberglass that is oxidized often needs to be buffed twice; once to remove oxidation and once again to remove swirls and bring out the brilliant shine.
All of your stainless steel is polished, non-skid flooring is scrubbed, rust stains are removed or reduced, the outboard motor (where applicable) gets the head of it buffed and waxed, the tires of your trailer and all interior vinyl seats and upholstery get 303 Aerospace Protectant applied to them, and wax is removed from cracks and crevices. Windows are sparkled clean. Have we left anything out? Let us know, and we’ll take care of it.
Call or email us now for an estimate. We’ll need to know the size, year, make/model, accurate condition, and location of the boat to give a reasonably close estimate.
You can trust us for unparalleled boat detailing, just as we excel in auto, RV, and big rig detailing services.
