Luxury yachts docked at an Arizona marina ready for Desert Steam Detail marine service

Marine · Boats · Yachts

Marine detailing for Arizona's finest vessels

Gel coat restoration, oxidation removal, interior steam cleaning and ceramic protection — performed dockside, at the marina or at your storage facility.

Overview

Dockside care for hulls, decks and cabins

Arizona lake water and relentless sun leave hard water staining and chalked gel coat. We restore the finish with multi-stage compounding, sanitize cabins with low-moisture steam, then lock in a ceramic layer that keeps the vessel slick and easy to wash all season.

  • Service at the marina, dock or your storage facility
  • Hard water and mineral staining safely removed
  • Cabin steam cleaning without saturating materials
  • Ceramic protection for season-long gloss

Ski boat with restored gel coat gloss after Desert Steam Detail marine exterior service in Arizona

Bronze & Silver

Designed to expertly clean and protect your vessel's existing surfaces. Your boat's existing gloss (clear coat) must be intact to justify this service, otherwise the protection will not bond properly and will not last or perform in the way it is designed.

Gold & Platinum

Designed to expertly restore prior gloss that has deteriorated from exposure to the elements, and then protect the newly restored gloss the same way the other packages do. If you see a faded, dull appearance devoid of any gloss that has oxidized to a chalky powder making it very difficult to clean, these are the right services for your vessel.

We guarantee our value!

Our goal is for you to get the most out of your experience for years to come.

Detailing services can be hard to evaluate and even more challenging to understand, because every vessel is different. We evaluate each vessel individually.

Our recommendations are based on your vessel's actual condition, so you receive the service appropriate to your boat and your desired outcome — never a one-size-fits-all package.

What we perform in this category

Detailing crew washing and detailing a yacht exterior dockside

Boat exterior with restored gel coat after marine detailing

Gel Coat Restoration

Multi-stage compounding cuts through sun-baked chalking and returns depth and color to fiberglass gel coat, followed by a refinement polish for a true wet-look shine.

Interior & Cabin Steam Cleaning

Controlled, low-moisture steam sanitizes vinyl, upholstery, helm surfaces and cabin panels — killing odor at the source without soaking foam or wood trim.

Clean white boat cabin upholstery and helm seating after detailing

Vinyl & Upholstery Restoration

Seating, cushions, bolsters and cockpit trim are deep cleaned, conditioned and brought back to a uniform, supple finish that resists cracking in desert heat.

Ceramic-protected glossy boat hull on a trailer

Ceramic Protection

A ceramic layer over restored gel coat keeps the vessel hydrophobic and bright, cutting wash time and slowing the return of oxidation and water spotting.
