Boat Ceramic Coating in St. Catharines

Boat Ceramic Coating in St. Catharines

Mobile boat ceramic coating, done properly, wherever your boat is kept.

For boats on Port Dalhousie, Martindale Pond and the Welland Canal, a ceramic coating means less time scrubbing the waterline and more time on the water. St. Catharines owners usually book coating in spring, before launch, or in fall, after haul-out, when the boat is on its trailer or stands and the hull can be corrected first.

Every St. Catharines coating job follows the same order: wash, decontaminate, correct the gelcoat, panel wipe, then coat and cure. On the western end of Lake Ontario the boating season usually runs from May into October, with a rush of detailing before launch and before winter storage.

Boat Ceramic Coating FAQs for St. Catharines

How do I get a boat ceramic coating quote in St. Catharines?+
Call 416-729-7935, use the form on this page or email freshnupdetailing@Hotmail.com. Send the make, model and length of your boat, where it is kept in St. Catharines, and a few photos, and we will send a clear quote.
Is ceramic coating better than wax for a boat?+
For protection and ease of cleaning, yes. Wax sits on top of the gelcoat and wears off within weeks to months on the water. A ceramic coating bonds to the surface and lasts far longer, though it still needs regular washing with a suitable soap.
Does my boat need to be polished first?+
Almost always. A coating seals in whatever is underneath it, so oxidation and swirl marks have to be corrected first. The cost of that correction depends on the condition of the gelcoat and is part of your quote.
How long does the coating take to cure?+
Coatings need to stay dry for a period after application, and full cure takes longer. We plan the job so the boat is not launched or rained on before it is ready, which is why most coatings are done before launch or after haul-out.
Will a ceramic coating stop waterline stains?+
It won't stop lake water from leaving a scum line, but stains don't grip a coated hull the way they grip bare gelcoat, so they come off much more easily.
Do you come to me in St. Catharines?+
Yes. We are mobile and bring our own water and power, so we can work at your home, a marina on Port Dalhousie, Martindale Pond and the Welland Canal, a storage yard or a cottage, with the property's permission.
