Boat Wet Sand & Buff - Boca Raton
Precision wet sanding and multi-step machine buffing to remove heavy oxidation, deep scratches, and hard water spots. Fully mobile in Boca Raton — we come to your slip, private dock, or storage yard along the Boca Raton Inlet, Lake Boca, and the Intracoastal.
Why Boca Raton boats need this.
Most Boca Raton boats live on private residential docks with limited water and power, which is exactly why a fully self-contained mobile crew makes more sense here than hauling to a yard.
Wet sanding is a controlled level of the gelcoat surface using fine-grit sandpaper and water as a lubricant. It's the most aggressive correction step available — and when done right, it produces results nothing else can match on badly chalked, etched, or stained hulls.
We run wet sand & buff throughout Boca Raton — Private docks, dayboats, and center consoles kept in showroom condition behind the house. Our crew arrives fully self-contained with power, water, and marine-grade products, so nothing is asked of your marina or dock.

Boca Raton FAQs
Is wet sanding safe for my gelcoat?
When done by trained hands on healthy gelcoat, yes. We check thickness and adjust grits accordingly — this is a professional-only service for a reason.
How long does the finish last?
With a proper wax seal you'll get 3–6 months of protection. Add a ceramic coating on top and you're looking at 1–5+ years, depending on the product.
Do I need this or just compound?
If a strong compound doesn't restore gloss during a test spot, wet sanding is likely needed. We'll do a free assessment before committing.
