Marine-grade ceramic coating and boat restoration specialists. Indoor application. Better than factory protection.
Colorado's lakes and reservoirs are beautiful. Colorado's sun is brutal. Your boat sits in a place that combines high-altitude UV intensity, mineral-rich hard water, and extreme temperature swings - all working together to oxidize, fade, and degrade your hull's finish. Fiberglass Worx handles boat detailing and ceramic coating to a standard that's better than factory. We're not a generic detailing service or a car wash with a boat bay. This is fiberglass repair and restoration work - the same craft-driven approach we apply to RV fiberglass repair, now tailored for marine environments and marine finishes.
Boat surfaces are nothing like a car's paint job. Most boats run gelcoat, but some run marine polyurethane, Awlgrip, or Epifanes - each with different chemical properties and maintenance needs. Hard water spots are worse than they look - mineral deposits etch into the finish and lock in oxidation. Colorado's high-altitude UV at 5,000+ feet is 20% more intense than sea level. The sun doesn't just fade boats - it breaks down the resin binders in gelcoat, turning it chalky and dull within a few years of exposure.
When that happens, a generic wash won't fix it. You need a multi-stage restoration process designed for marine surfaces. When other companies say no, we say yes. Our team brings over 20 years of combined fiberglass experience to every job in our dedicated indoor facility.
Common reasons boat owners need detailing and restoration in Colorado:
Every service below is performed by the same experienced team, in the same climate-controlled indoor facility, held to the same better-than-factory finish standard. Whether your boat needs seasonal maintenance or deep restoration, we assess the condition in person and recommend the right level of care.

Your boat's first line of defense against Colorado's elements is a clean, protected surface. Our boat wash and wax service removes salt deposits, algae, hard water spots, and road grime, then applies a ceramic spray and marine-grade protective wax. Ideal before or after boating season, or as regular maintenance between bigger jobs.

For boat owners who want long-term protection, we apply professional marine-grade ceramic coating using Glidecoat Alpha Graphene X. Creates a hydrophobic surface that resists UV damage, hard water spots, salt spray, and oxidation for 2+ years. Installed in our controlled indoor facility for proper curing and adhesion.

When your hull has turned dull, chalky, or discolored from years of Colorado sun, the problem is oxidation locked into the gel coat. Our boat oxidation removal service uses a multi-stage process - wet sanding, compound, polish - followed by ceramic coating. We work with any marine surface: gel coat, paint, marine polyurethane, Awlgrip, or Epifanes.

For boats with severe surface degradation - heavy crazing, deep discoloration, or significant breakdown - our boat gel coat restoration service is the most intensive detailing work we offer. This multi-stage process restores color, depth, and gloss to factory-fresh condition, then protects the restored finish with ceramic coating.

Scratches, parking lot dings, small chips, and spider cracks in the gelcoat hurt your resale value and can let moisture in. Our proprietary gelcoat color-matching process means you shouldn’t be able to tell the repair was ever there.

A rock kicked up on the highway, a stress crack around a window frame, a hole from a removed antenna mount — Colorado’s freeze-thaw cycle can turn a small crack into a big problem fast. We assess every crack before touching it.

Bring your boat to our shop at 7685 Dahlia Street in Commerce City. We'll walk around it with you, assess the current condition of the hull and deck, and give you an honest recommendation on the spot. We look at oxidation level, hard water deposits, any crazing or damage, and what it will take to restore it. No appointment required for estimates. No phone quotes - because boat surfaces need to be seen and touched to be properly evaluated.
Once you give the go-ahead, we photograph the boat and create a detailed service plan. If the boat needs ceramic coating, we identify which surfaces are being treated and what prep is required. For oxidation removal work, we map out the severity and the correct compound and polish schedule.
The boat is moved into our climate-controlled indoor facility. We clean the entire exterior, removing hard water deposits, algae, salt spray residue, and road grime. For oxidation removal or coating work, the surface is properly prepped through wet sanding, compound, and polish stages. Proper prep is everything - if you cut corners here, nothing that follows will hold or look right.
Depending on your service choice, we either apply protective wax, install ceramic coating, or execute the full oxidation removal and restoration process. Ceramic coating is applied in our controlled environment where temperature and humidity are optimized for proper adhesion and curing. All work happens indoors, away from dust and temperature fluctuations.
The boat is inspected for consistency, shine, and coverage. We perform a multi-point quality check before anything leaves the shop. Then we walk you through the finished work so you can see the result for yourself and understand how to maintain it going forward.

Everything you need to know about boat detailing at Fiberglass Worx.
Pricing depends on boat size and condition. Ceramic coating typically ranges from $500 to $2,000+ for a full boat, depending on the hull size and existing surface condition. Free verbal estimates in person - bring your boat to the shop so we can assess it and give you an accurate price.
Most detailing jobs are completed within 1-3 days from the time we start, depending on the scope. A simple wash and wax might take a day. Full oxidation removal and ceramic coating typically takes 2-3 days in our facility. We'll give you a realistic timeline during your estimate.
Absolutely. Glidecoat Alpha Graphene X is marine-grade ceramic specifically formulated for boats. It provides 2+ years of UV protection, creates a hydrophobic surface that resists water spots, and resists salt spray and hard water mineral buildup better than wax alone. Colorado's high-altitude UV is intense - ceramic coating is the best long-term defense.
Yes - this is exactly what our boat oxidation removal service handles. If your hull has turned chalky, dull, or discolored from sun damage, we use a multi-stage wet sanding and compound process to remove oxidation and restore the original color and depth. Then we protect it with ceramic coating so it stays looking fresh.
Wash and wax is the seasonal maintenance option - it cleans the boat and applies protective wax that lasts 6-8 months. Ceramic coating is the professional, long-term protection - it lasts 2+ years and provides superior UV and water spot resistance.
If your boat's hull looks severely faded, chalky, or damaged, yes. A good restoration can take a boat from looking 15 years old to looking brand new - and dramatically improves resale value if you ever sell. Our boat gel coat restoration is the premium option, but it's the difference between "fixed" and "showroom quality."
You can do basic washing at home, but marine surfaces - especially gelcoat - require specific knowledge to avoid damage. Hard water spots etch into gel coat if you use the wrong removal method. Improper oxidation removal can create swirl marks that are worse than the original problem. Ceramic coating must be applied in controlled temperature and humidity. Professional work gives you the right technique, the right products, and a guarantee of quality.
For a boat stored outdoors or in regular use, we recommend seasonal wash and wax before and after boating season. If you invest in ceramic coating, you get 2+ years of protection, then can reapply or go back to seasonal wax maintenance. Colorado's intense UV and hard water make regular maintenance essential - boats that get detailed twice a year hold their value and appearance much better than neglected ones.
We work on virtually every fiberglass-sided RV brand — Escape, Tiffin, Newmar, Grand Design, Brinkley, Luxe, Winnebago, Airstream, Thor, Keystone, Jayco, Entegra, and many more. We’re also an official Escape Trailer Industries service partner — one of only four locations globally.
No matter what condition your boat is in - seasonal cleaning and protection, hard water spot removal, deep oxidation restoration, or complete gel coat refresh - it starts with the same step. Bring your boat to our shop in Commerce City for a free verbal estimate. We'll look at it, tell you exactly what we see, and recommend the right level of care. No pressure, no phone quotes, no runaround.
