Boston's Leading Full Service Vessel Management Company.

Fiberglass-constructed hulls are coated with Gelcoat to protect from UV degradation. As the gelcoat takes a beating from the sun and its environment, micropores develop in the surfaces that cause dull and diminished surface finishes.

 

The process to refinish the Gelcoat involves removing the gelcoat oxidation by wet sanding, refinishing, and polishing. Additional wax protection is often added to ensure season-long protection. We use a Hutchinson wet sander hooked up to an Ingersoll dual-stage air compressor that provides the means to quickly smooth out surface blemishes caused by UV degradation.

 

We use Makita buffers equipped with wool pads to refinish the surface after sanding. On colored hulls, we polish with foam pads when necessary. Using commercial-grade materials and professionally-trained operators, we are able to achieve the highest quality of restoring your gelcoat to a brilliant shine.
