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 Lake Pend Oreille, marinas in Sandpoint, Hope, and Garfield Bay, private docks around the lake, and homes and storage lots throughout the area. Owner-operated, hand-finished. We come to your boat.
Lake Pend Oreille is one of the largest, deepest freshwater lakes in the Inland Northwest. That size translates to more open water, more direct sun, and more UV on the hull through the season. Sandpoint-area boats see harder use than most owners realize, multi-hour cruises across the lake, time at anchor, and minimal cover. Annual buff and wax is the right schedule for almost every boat we see up here.
We work marinas in Sandpoint and Hope, the Garfield Bay area, City Beach, private docks across the lake, and homes and storage lots throughout Bonner County.

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.
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.
Send a few photos and tell us about the boat. We'll tell you what your boat actually needs.
Yes. Lake Pend Oreille is core territory, we work the marinas in Sandpoint, Hope, Bayview, and Garfield Bay, plus dockside at private homes around the lake. Pend Oreille's size means a lot of boats and a lot of UV exposure all summer.
Annual buff and wax in spring is standard for Pend Oreille boats. The lake is deep and the water is clear, which means strong UV reflection on the hull all summer. Boats stored uncovered should add a mid-season wax-only refresh in July. Covered or garaged boats can stretch the full buff to every 18 months.
Both. We work at private docks around Lake Pend Oreille, at marinas in Sandpoint and Hope, at City Beach, and at homes and storage lots throughout the 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. There's a modest travel adjustment for Sandpoint since it's about an hour and a half from our Spokane base.
Spring (late April through early June) and fall (September–October) are the busy windows. Sandpoint specifically books up early in May because the season feels shorter, the lake clears late and boats come out fast. Reach out 3–4 weeks ahead in May.
Owner-operated. Mobile across Sandpoint, Hope, Priest River, Hayden, and the broader Inland Northwest.
