San Diego Boat Detail

Explore how we apply advanced ceramic coatings to any size yachts in San Diego, delivering long-lasting shine, enhanced durability, and effortless maintenance.

 

At Julian Yacht Care, our marine ceramic coating service is tailored for the saltwater environment, UV exposure, and heavy wear that vessels face in the San Diego region. Unlike traditional waxes, a high-quality ceramic coating bond forms a hard, hydrophobic barrier over your hull, gelcoat, topsides, and stainless-steel trim—helping resist oxidation, staining, chalking, bird-droppings, and salt-spray build-up.

 

Our gallery highlights vessels like the 46′ Helmsman Trawler, the sleek Beneteau 45, and the compact Boston Whaler 18, to name a few, all transformed with our ceramic coating system. You’ll see the dramatic “before” condition—dull finishes, hazy surfaces, corrosion-prone stainless—contrasted with “after” results: deep gloss, mirror-like reflections, clear-coat clarity, and easier cleaning.

​

Why Choose Ceramic Coating for Your Vessel?

• Superior protection vs. standard wax: A ceramic coat forms a semi-permanent bond, outlasting wax by months or even years under marine conditions.

• Hydrophobic & easy to clean: The nano-surface repels water, salt, and grime – so rinsing off algae, spray, or barnacle residue becomes faster and gentler.

• UV and oxidation defense: The coating shields gel-coat and fiberglass from UV-induced fading and chalking, keeping your boat looking new.

• Value preservation: A well-maintained vessel with ceramic protection commands a higher resale value and reduced maintenance costs.

​

Our Process – From Prep to Finish

1. Surface assessment & decontamination: We inspect the hull and topsides, remove embedded iron particles, oxidation, and light scratches to prepare a clean substrate.

2. Polishing and leveling: Using marine-grade compounds and polishers, we restore gloss and remove holograms or swirl marks before coating.

3. Coating application: We apply the marine-grade ceramic coating, ensuring even coverage across gel-coat, vinyls, stainless or acrylic surfaces.

4. Cure time & final inspection: After application, the coating cures, bonds fully, and is inspected by our team. We then walk you through after-care and maintenance guidance. Our team can also help you with the proper routine washdown.
