Detailing, On The Water

Boat valeting and jet ski ceramic coatings across the Sussex coast. The same obsessive standards we bring to cars, brought to the marina.

Boat and Jet Ski Detailing in Sussex

Juicy Car Care brings professional detailing to the water. We valet boats and detail jet skis at marinas, moorings, storage yards and driveways across Shoreham, Brighton and the West Sussex coast. The same hand finishing and ceramic protection we apply to cars, adapted for gelcoat, hulls and marine conditions.

Boats are cleaned where they sit, at the marina, on the mooring or on the hard, so you never need to move them. Jet ski ceramic coatings are applied indoors at our unit near Worthing, where the coating can cure properly away from salt air, dust and weather.

Jet Ski Detailing and Ceramic Coating

Salt water is harder on a finish than anything a car faces. Every launch leaves salt, scum line and mineral deposits on the hull, and UV fades gelcoat fast when a ski sits uncovered between rides.

A ceramic coating seals the hull and topside so salt and grime rinse off instead of bonding to the surface. Your ski stays glossier for longer, the wash-down after a session takes minutes instead of an hour, and the gelcoat is protected from UV fade.

Jet ski ceramic coatings from £400. Price depends on the size and condition of the ski. A newer hull that needs light prep sits at the lower end. Heavier oxidation or staining needs correction first and we quote that individually.

Coatings are applied indoors at our unit in Findon Valley, just north of Worthing, not on a windy slipway. A ceramic coating needs a clean, dry, controlled environment to bond and cure properly, and that is the difference between protection that lasts seasons and protection that fails in weeks.

We also offer standalone jet ski washes and full details, priced on condition, and these can be done wherever the ski lives.

Boat Cleaning and Valeting

We wash, polish and protect motorboats and RIBs at their berth or on the hard. Work is quoted per boat because no two are the same, tell us the length, where it is kept and what state it is in, and we will give you a straight price.

What we cover: full wash-downs of hull and topsides, scum line and waterline stain removal, gelcoat polishing to bring back colour and gloss, ceramic protection for hulls and topsides, and interior valeting including vinyl, upholstery and non-slip decks.

Where We Work

We are based in Worthing and cover the Sussex coast, including Shoreham, Shoreham Port, Lady Bee Marina and the local storage yards, Brighton Marina, Littlehampton, and private moorings, driveways and storage across Worthing and West Sussex.

If your boat or ski is kept somewhere else nearby, ask. If we can get to it with water and power, or bring our own, we can detail it.

Why Use a Detailer Instead of a Boat Wash?

A quick jet wash gets the mud off. It does not remove bonded salt, restore faded gelcoat or leave any protection behind, so the boat looks the same or worse a fortnight later.

Detailing is different. We decontaminate the surface properly, polish out oxidation where it is needed, then seal the finish so it stays cleaner between washes. It is the difference between rinsing your ski and protecting your investment in it.

Marine Detailing FAQs

Is ceramic coating worth it on a jet ski?

Yes, arguably more than on a car. Jet skis take constant salt water, UV and scum buildup, and a ceramic coating stops those bonding to the gelcoat. The biggest day-to-day benefit is the wash-down: salt and grime rinse off a coated hull in minutes. Coatings on our jet skis start at £400.

How much does jet ski ceramic coating cost in the UK?

At Juicy Car Care, jet ski ceramic coatings start from £400 for a ski in good condition. If the gelcoat is oxidised or stained it needs machine correction first, which we quote after seeing the ski. Boat coatings are always quoted individually by size and condition.

Do you come to the marina?

Yes. Boat cleaning, valeting and jet ski washes are fully mobile, and we work at marinas, moorings, storage yards and driveways across Shoreham, Brighton, Littlehampton and the wider West Sussex coast. Jet ski ceramic coatings are the exception: those are done indoors at our unit near Worthing so the coating cures in the right conditions.

How long does a ceramic coating last on a boat or jet ski?

With sensible aftercare, expect one to three seasons depending on usage and whether the craft lives in the water or on a trailer. A coated hull that gets a fresh-water rinse after salt use will hold its protection far longer than one left salty.

Can you remove the yellow waterline stain on my hull?

Usually, yes. Waterline and scum stains are mineral and organic deposits that bond to gelcoat, and they need proper decontamination rather than scrubbing. Send us a photo and we will tell you what is possible before you commit.
