Can you fix scratches and paint chips on my fiberglass hull?

Yes – we repair gelcoat scratches, paint chips, and surface damage using color-matched marine coatings. Our touch-up process blends repairs seamlessly for a like-new appearance.

What causes boat paint to fade or peel over time?

UV exposure, saltwater, poor prep work, or low-quality paint can lead to fading, chalking, and peeling. We prep surfaces properly and use premium-grade marine coatings for lasting protection.

Do you offer color matching for older or custom-painted boats?

Definitely. We use professional color matching tools and marine-grade pigments to restore custom or OEM finishes – even for older boats or faded paintwork.

How much does paint repair or touch-up typically cost?

Minor paint repairs start around $200. Larger restoration projects or multi-color jobs can range from $500 to $2,000 depending on size, prep, and materials. Estimates are free.

Can you fix dock rash and scuffs along the hull sides?

Yes – dock rash is one of the most common cosmetic issues. We sand, fill, and blend paint or gelcoat to remove scuffs, ensuring smooth edges and factory-like shine.

Do you work on painted aluminum boats too?

Absolutely. We repair flaking or oxidized paint on aluminum hulls using etch primers and durable topcoats designed specifically for metal. We restore protection and visual appeal.

Is paint repair done at the dock or do I need to haul out the boat?

Many touch-ups and side repairs can be done dockside. For major restoration or full repaint, we recommend haul-out. We’ll advise based on the location and extent of the damage.

Do you provide bottom painting for sailboats, powerboats, and yachts?

Yes — we offer professional bottom painting and antifouling services for sailboats, center consoles, cruisers, and yachts of all sizes. We match the paint to your hull type and local marina conditions.

Can you haul out my boat or work with the yard I choose?

Absolutely — we coordinate haul-outs with boatyards in San Pedro, Wilmington, Long Beach, and Marina del Rey. We can also work directly with the yard of your choice.

What type of antifouling paint works best in Southern California waters?

In SoCal marinas, we typically recommend copper-based, hybrid, or ablative antifouling paints that resist marine growth, algae, and barnacles common in warm Pacific waters.

How often should I repaint the bottom of my boat?

Most boats need bottom paint every 12–24 months, depending on usage, water conditions, and whether the boat stays in the slip year-round.

Do you sand, prep, and repair the hull before painting?

Yes — we handle all preparation: sanding, pressure washing, blister repair, barrier coating, zinc replacement, and through-hull inspection before applying new antifouling paint.

Can you recommend eco-friendly antifouling options for California marinas?

Yes — we offer low-VOC, eco-friendly antifouling paints approved for California waters, ideal for marinas with environmental compliance requirements.

Do you offer prop speed, running gear coating, and zinc anode service?

Yes — we provide PropSpeed, shaft and propeller coating, strut protection, and full zinc anode replacement during your bottom job.

Do you create custom boat names, registration numbers, and vinyl graphics?

Yes — we design and install custom boat names, CF numbers, vinyl lettering, hull decals, and full marine graphics tailored to your boat’s style and size.

Can you come to my slip to install the lettering?

Absolutely — we offer mobile installation in Marina del Rey, Long Beach, San Pedro, Wilmington, and surrounding California marinas. No need to haul out.

What material do you use for marine lettering?

We use premium marine-grade vinyl, UV-resistant and saltwater-safe, designed to handle sun exposure, abrasion, and harsh coastal conditions.

Can you match the style of my previous boat name or create something custom?

Yes — we can recreate existing designs or develop a completely custom graphic, font, color theme, or logo based on your vision.

Do you remove old decals and prepare the surface before applying new graphics?

Yes — we handle everything: old vinyl removal, adhesive cleanup, polishing, surface prep, and precise installation of your new lettering or graphics.

How long does marine vinyl lettering last in Southern California sun?

High-quality vinyl typically lasts 7–10 years in SoCal conditions, thanks to UV-stable pigments and weather-resistant adhesives.
