TopsideDetailing
§ The work
Salt, sun, and rain are hard on gelcoat. Regular topside detailing keeps oxidation, water spotting, and mildew from setting in, and it protects your resale value more than almost anything else you can do.
I hand wash, compound where needed, polish, and wax — plus vinyl, canvas, non-skid, and interior work. Docked in St. Pete or anywhere around Tampa Bay, I come to your boat.
§ What's included
- Hand wash and salt rinse
- Compound and polish on oxidized gelcoat
- Wax and sealant for UV protection
- Vinyl, upholstery, and non-skid cleaning
- Interior wipe-down and detail
§ Common questions
Topside Detailing — answered.
How often should I detail my boat?
A wash after each use plus a full wax two to three times a year keeps Florida sun and salt from dulling the gelcoat.
Do you detail at the marina?
Yes — detailing is done in your slip anywhere in the St. Petersburg and Tampa Bay area.
