Your boat deserves uncompromising care
Every surface is washed, restored and protected to one meticulous standard.
A boat takes more punishment than any car. Oxidation dulls the gel coat, algae and waterline stains build up on the hull, and salt settles into every surface. At Stewart's Auto Care, our marine detailing is designed for exactly that. The hull is washed and prepped above and below the rub rail, light to moderate oxidation is removed with machine polishing, and a machine-applied wax restores the depth of color and protects the gel coat from UV, oxidation and marine growth.
The water is never kind to a finish. Salt, sun and algae wear a boat down a little more every day it is out, and a rinse at the dock does not undo it. Our marine detailing brings the same meticulous care we give fine cars to your boat, with the hull washed and prepped above and below the rub rail, oxidation reduced by machine polishing and a machine-applied wax that restores the gloss and protects the gel coat against UV, oxidation and marine growth.
Benefits of professional marine detailing
Six things you notice once the vessel has been detailed properly. Tap any row to read more.
Oxidation Removed
Oxidation Removed Sun and salt slowly turn the gel coat chalky and dull. Machine polishing removes that oxidation and brings the color back, so the hull looks rich and clear again.
Durable UV Protection
Durable UV Protection Once the finish is restored, a machine-applied wax seals the gel coat against UV. It slows the fading and oxidation that sunlight causes, so the boat stays looking its best for longer.
Gel Coat Restored
Gel Coat Restored Gel coat loses its clarity a little more every season. Machine polishing brings back the depth and shine, so the hull looks as refined as it did when the boat was new.
Marine Growth Blocked
Marine Growth Blocked Algae, waterline stains and salt cling to the hull below the rub rail. We wash them away and apply a wax that forms a barrier against marine growth, so the hull stays cleaner between details.
Marine-Safe Interior Care
Marine-Safe Interior Care Boat upholstery and flooring need products made for them. We clean and protect every seat and cushion with marine-safe products and clean SeaDek and other flooring properly, so the interior is fresh without being damaged.
Higher Resale Value
Higher Resale Value Oxidation and stained upholstery give a buyer every reason to negotiate down. Regular detailing protects what your boat is worth, whether you sell it or trade it in.

Our process
How we detail your vessel
Every marine detail follows the same careful order, from the first wash to the final wipe-down. Here is how your boat moves through our hands.
Wash and Prep
Every surface is thoroughly washed and prepped before any other work begins. Above the rub rail, we remove salt, dirt and grime. Below it, we clear algae, waterline buildup and salt from the hull so the gel coat is clean and ready.
Remove Oxidation
On machine wax services, light to moderate oxidation is polished away by machine. This brings back the clarity and depth of color that sun and salt have faded.
Wax and Protect
A machine-applied wax is worked into the gel coat for gloss and durable protection against UV, oxidation and marine growth. On spray wax services, a protective spray wax is applied for gloss and short-term protection.
Detail the Interior
On full detail services, all upholstery is cleaned and protected with marine-safe products, SeaDek and other flooring is thoroughly cleaned, and every compartment, surface and touch point is wiped down.
