✨ 1987 Stieger Craft Gelcoat Restoration ✨

This classic 1987 Stieger Craft came to us showing its age. Years of oxidation, fading, and weathering had left the gelcoat looking tired and dull. After a lot of hard work, patience, and attention to detail, the transformation speaks for itself.

Every restoration is different, and this project required a combination of techniques, products, and a few trade secrets developed through experience. From heavy oxidation removal to multi-stage correction and finishing, we worked every inch of this hull to bring back the depth, color, and shine that had been hidden for years.
The result? A boat that turns heads again and looks ready for many more seasons on the water.

At GDK Marine Detailing & Restoration, we take pride in bringing neglected gelcoat back to life and preserving the value and appearance of your vessel.
If your boat is looking faded, chalky, or weathered, send us a message and see what we can do for you.

Another beautiful transformation completed on Sebago Lake! 🚤✨

We recently detailed this boat right at its location on Sebago Lake. The darker gelcoat colors were showing signs of oxidation, leaving the finish looking dull and faded. After a full top-to-bottom detail and restoration, we brought the shine back and protected the surface with a premium SiO2 polymer sealant for long-lasting gloss and protection.

The results speak for themselves

—deep color, incredible shine, and a finish that's ready for the season on the water.

As a mobile marine detailing service, we come directly to your boat, whether it's at the dock, marina, storage facility, or your home.

At GDK Marine Detailing & Restoration, results speak for themselves. In this video, you’re seeing a second-year maintenance wax on this beautiful True World Marine vessel — and the shine is still turning heads.

When this customer first came to us last year, the boat had heavy oxidation, scratches, staining, and virtually no shine left in the gelcoat. We performed a full multi-step restoration process including sanding, compounding, polishing, and sealant protection to completely revive the finish.

This is a perfect example of what the right tools, the right techniques, and years of experience can achieve. Proper marine restoration isn’t just about making a boat look good for a day — it’s about bringing back long-lasting gloss and protection that holds up season after season.

If your boat is faded, oxidized, or lacking shine, GDK Marine Detailing & Restoration can bring it back to life.

Catalina 22 looking fresh and protected for the season! ⚓✨

Headed out to Fry Island Maine and completed a full compound and polish to bring back the shine, followed by a fresh coat of VC 17M antifouling paint for smooth performance and season-long protection in the water.

Nothing beats a clean hull and mirror finish heading into boating season. Ready for launch! 🌊⛵

Quick refresh on this 1990 Thundercraft bow rider! 🔥🚤

Customer wanted a solid cleanup and usability upgrade, so we installed new flooring, completed a full compound and wax to bring the shine back, and handled a quick tune-up to get her running right for the season.

One big issue was the seating layout — the seats were mounted way too close to the dashboard with almost no legroom. We reworked the fitment to make the cockpit much more comfortable, especially for bigger passengers.

Small changes can make an older boat feel brand new again. Ready for the water! 🌊☀️

Starting to come back to life

This was not a wash and wax — this was a full topside and non-skid restoration.

The gel coat presented heavy oxidation and chalking throughout. We completed a multi-step correction process to properly remove oxidation, restore color and clarity, and refine the surface to a consistent finish.

Non-skid areas were professionally treated to eliminate buildup and restore a clean, uniform appearance while maintaining proper traction.

All surfaces were then sealed with a high-quality polymer protectant for lasting durability.

A clear difference between a quick detail and a proper restoration.

If your boat’s finish is fading, we can bring it back. Message us to discuss. 🚤
