Gelcoat Refurbishing / Renewal Pictures

Gelcoat refurbishing, also called gelcoat renewal or gelcoat rejuvenation, is a unique service where a gelcoat specialist is able to remove chalky/faded gelcoat (by hand) to bring back the original factory finish and lustre. Oftentimes we also have to repair scratches, gouges or other blemishes in the refurbishing process - gelcoat is custom color matched to the restored finish and not the chalky/faded finish. Metalflake finishes cannot be refurbished. Not all boats are candidates for this service, but we offer options for boats that have gelcoat beyond repair. Buffing/waxing and exterior detailing does not refurbish gelcoat.
