Buff & wax
Compound, polish, and a hand-applied marine wax. Cuts oxidation, restores color depth, seals the gelcoat for 8–12 months. Whole-boat or topsides only.
Mobile boat buff and wax for Hayden Lake, dockside at private homes, on lifts, on trailers, at marinas, and at storage. Owner-operated, hand-finished. We come to your boat with our own water and power.
Hayden Lake is one of the clearest, deepest lakes in north Idaho, which translates to direct sun on the water and intense UV reflecting back at the hull. Dark-color gelcoat takes a beating through summer here, and the chalk shows up faster than owners expect. Most Hayden boats need full annual service to keep the finish alive.
We work the east and west shores, the public launches, and private docks around the lake. Lakefront homes get dockside service. Boats on trailers get on-site service at the home or storage lot. Boats in slips at the marinas get slip-side work.

For chalky, yellowed, or faded hulls. Multi-stage compound with wet-sand when needed.
Pre-season prep, end-of-season detail before winter storage. Either window protects the gelcoat.

Yes. Hayden Lake is core territory, we work dockside at private homes around the lake, at marinas on the east and west shores, and at storage lots in Hayden and Hayden Lake proper. The lake's clear water and intense summer sun make annual buff and wax especially worth it on dark hulls.
Hayden Lake boats stored uncovered should get a full buff and wax annually in spring, plus a mid-season wax-only refresh in July. Boats kept in covered slips or garages can stretch the full buff to every 18 months. Dark-color hulls, blacks, navys, reds, almost always need annual service to keep gloss.
Both. We work at private docks, lakefront homes around Hayden Lake, at marina slips, and at storage facilities throughout Hayden and the surrounding area. We bring our own water and power.
Depends on the boat. Length, gelcoat condition, scope (whole-boat vs topsides only), and hull color all move the number. Send a few photos and we'll come back with a real quote, not a range.
Spring (late April through early June) is the prep window, most owners want their boat ready before the holiday weekends. May books up fastest; reach out 2–4 weeks ahead. Fall (September–October) is the other busy window before winter storage.
Owner-operated. Mobile across Hayden, Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, and the broader Inland Northwest.
