    Default Finally decided to ceramic coat

    And no regrets!!!

    If anyone is in the Raleigh/Durham area be sure to hit up David at NcWakeboats or follow him on instagram!

    Not only does he hand select boats from all over the country to sell, he now offers all services including detail.

    I got a full detail (in and out, engine bay and trailer), gel coat correction, prep and polish, ceramic coat, windows tinted, and fixed my previously non functioning (incorrectly wired) underwater LEDs for ⅔ or less of what I had been quoted before.

    I understand and respect anyone who opts to go to their dealer to maintain a relationship, but I’ve always preferred personable service from smaller (licensed) companies.

    Enough on the shoutout - I’ve been strongly considering all of the above for some time but quotes were either outrageous or the wait was way too long.

    I’m so stoked on the polish, ceramic coating, and tint and highly recommend it to anyone!!!

    Enjoy the pics fellas!






    If you’d like contact info let me know!

    Nice pics and good looking ride.

    Most of us around Knoxville also use some type of small 'specialty company' that knows their stuff for ceramic and tinted.
    I will let the dealer worry about the other boat stuff.

    Did someone install LEDs before you purchased the boat?

    The tint really transforms the boat, looks stellar.

    You will love the ceramic, cuts maintenance significantly.

    Thanks!

    That’s the main reason i finally bit the bullet. Looking forward to much easier maintenance after every use.

    Yeah. LEDs were installed already when I bought it but they never worked. Tried to troubleshoot with dealer but eventually gave up.

    My wife really wanted them to work so I asked
    Them to fix or replace them for me. Turns out they were wired incorrectly

    Any recommendations on wiping after use now that it is coated?

    I religiously wipe down every time. Last season I used babes and it worked well.

    This season I switched to boat bling and was very unimpressed.

    What ceramic did they use?
    I had my truck done and the same company makes a quick detailer and a soap that won't hurt the coating and restores. I thought it was a gimmick to sell more product but they are less than other brands so why not stick to what is tested to work.

    The detailer spray from Chemical Guys is suppose to be safe on all ceramics but I would test an area first.

    Also...the boat looks good. I did a spray on "ceramic" 2 seasons ago. I have used boat bling ever since and dirt and water sports come right off. The ceramic is worth it to lower time spent cleaning.

    They used majestic solutions.

    I have graphene on our vehicles and use Adam’s water deionizer and their ceramic wash and the cars can air dry without a single water spot!

    I also have some of the CG solution I could try.

    I can try boat bling again. Maybe it’ll be better now with the ceramic

    I’ll use the same water source to wash the boat at home.

    I use carpro Ech20 with 20% vinegar if needed.
