Boat Ceramic Coating Maintenance: The Essential Guide

Ceramic coatings are a game changer for boat owners—sleek, hydrophobic, and protective. But without proper maintenance, they won’t last. Here's how to protect your investment.

The Do’s:

• Use a pH-neutral soap to avoid degrading the coating.

• Wash often, especially after saltwater outings.

• Dry with a clean microfiber towel to reduce water spots.

The Don’ts:

• Don’t use dish soap or degreasers—they’ll strip your coating fast.

• Don’t apply wax over a ceramic coating (unless it's compatible).

• Don’t let salt or grime sit too long—it eats away at performance.

Conclusion: Ceramic coatings aren’t maintenance-free—but with the right routine, they’ll protect your boat and keep it shining for seasons to come.
