Boat Detailing Specialists in Los Angeles County
Protect and preserve the appearance of your boat with our professional Mobile Boat Detailing services in Simi Valley, Santa Clarita Valley, San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles County, and surrounding areas.
Our boat detailing services include basic exterior detailing, wash & wax, oxidation removal, and ceramic coating - all brought directly to your driveway, storage lot, or marina. From removing water spots, scum lines, and buildup to restoring dull, oxidized gelcoat, we clean, restore, and protect every surface of your boat.
Our Boat Detailing services are designed to defend your boat against the sun exposure, water spotting, and oxidation that Southern California puts on every hull - keeping your gelcoat looking cleaner, glossier, and better protected for longer.
Why Boat Detailing Matters
Your boat takes a beating no matter where it is - baking in direct California sun, sitting in storage collecting dust and buildup, or out on the water being exposed to hard water and scum lines. UV rays break down gelcoat and cause it to fade and chalk, while water spots etch into the finish the longer they're left behind. The problem with oxidation is that it doesn't reverse itself - the longer it sits, the more expensive it becomes to fix. A hull that could have been maintained with regular washes and wax protection eventually needs full machine polishing to restore. Regular professional detailing keeps you ahead of the damage, protects your boat's value, and keeps it looking dock-ready instead of worn out. And because we're fully mobile, we bring everything needed directly to your driveway, storage lot, or marina.
This photo shows a classic 1970s boat we serviced as part of our wash & ceramic coating special. After a full wash and decontamination to remove buildup and embedded contaminants from the gelcoat, we applied a 1-year ceramic coating - leaving the finish with a refreshed gloss and lasting protection against sun and water exposure.
Basic Exterior Detailig
A safe, thorough exterior cleaning that includes scrubbing the rims, tires, and wheel wells, a pre-wash to lift loose debris before anything touches the paint, a full contact wash, a 1-month polymer sealant for protection, and tire shine to finish.
Wash & Wax
A complete exterior service that includes scrubbing the rims, tires, and wheel wells, a pre-wash to lift loose debris before anything touches the paint, a full contact wash, a clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants, a 3-month polymer sealant for lasting gloss and protection, and tire shine to finish.
Oxidation Removal & Ceramic Coating
Machine polishing that cuts through faded, chalky oxidation to restore your boat's deep gloss, sealed with a professional ceramic coating for years of protection against sun, staining, and buildup.
Marine & Boat Basic Exterior Detailing
starting at $10/foot
Our Basic Exterior Detail for boats begins with a full cleaning of the trailer, where we scrub the rims, tires, and fenders to remove built-up brake dust, dirt, and grime.
Next, we perform a pre-wash across the entire exterior to safely drag down loose dirt and debris before anything touches the surface - an important step that prevents scratching and swirling during the wash. From there, we complete a thorough contact wash of the hull, deck, and topsides, removing water spots, scum lines, and buildup from bow to stern, along with the windows, metal rails, and fittings.
Once the exterior is clean and dry, we apply a 1-month polymer sealant that adds gloss and a layer of protection against sun and water exposure. We finish the service by dressing the trailer tires with a clean shine, leaving your boat refreshed and ready for the water.
Marine & Boat Wash & Wax
Starting at $13/foot
Our Wash & Wax service for boats begins with a full cleaning of the trailer, where we scrub the rims, tires, and fenders to remove built-up brake dust, dirt, and grime.
Next, we perform a pre-wash across the entire exterior to safely drag down loose dirt and debris before anything touches the surface, followed by a thorough contact wash of the hull, deck, and topsides to remove water spots, scum lines, and buildup, along with the windows, metal rails, and fittings. We then go over the exterior with a clay bar treatment, which pulls embedded contaminants out of the gelcoat that washing alone can't remove, leaving the finish smooth to the touch.
Once the exterior is fully clean and decontaminated, we apply a 3-month polymer sealant that adds deep gloss and longer-lasting protection against sun and water exposure. We finish the service by dressing the trailer tires with a clean shine, leaving your boat protected and looking its best.
Marine & Boat Polishing & Ceramic Coating Price ranges between $30-90/foot
Our Oxidation Removal & Ceramic Coating service for boats begins with a full cleaning of the trailer, where we scrub the rims, tires, and fenders to remove built-up brake dust, dirt, and grime.
Next, we perform a pre-wash across the entire exterior to safely drag down loose dirt and debris before anything touches the surface, followed by a thorough contact wash of the hull, deck, and topsides, along with the windows, metal rails, and fittings. We then decontaminate the finish with a clay bar treatment to pull embedded contaminants out of the gelcoat and an iron remover to dissolve bonded metal particles that washing can't touch - leaving the surface completely clean and ready for polishing.
From there, we machine polish the exterior to cut through the oxidation, removing the faded, chalky layer and restoring the depth, color, and gloss of your boat's gelcoat.
Once the finish is fully restored, we apply a professional-grade ceramic coating that seals the surface against UV damage, oxidation, and water spotting. The coating locks in the restored gloss and makes every future wash dramatically faster and easier, keeping your boat protected for years instead of months.
Is Boat detailing expensive?
Our exterior detailing packages start at $10 per foot, so a 20-foot boat starts around $200 - far less than what neglect costs when a faded gelcoat needs full restoration. Oxidation removal and ceramic coating are quoted based on the size and condition of your boat. For a fast, accurate quote, text us a photo of your boat along with its length.
How often should I have my Boat detailed?
For boats stored outside in California sun or used regularly on the water, we recommend a wash & wax every 2-3 months to keep the gelcoat protected. If your boat is ceramic coated, maintenance is easier and less frequent - the coating does the protective work for you.
Is ceramic coating worth it on a Boat
For boats exposed to sun, storage, and time on the water, it's one of the best investments you can make. The coating protects against the UV damage and water spotting that cause oxidation in the first place, and on a hull this exposed to the elements, the time saved on every future wash adds up fast.
