From everything I've read and seen, that stuff is amazing. Brings back deep liquid looking color and removes all oxidation. 5k seems a bit high but may be worth it.
Some pics in this thread from a local Havasu detailer that's done a LOT.

Another thread from same detailer with examples of it applied. Oh, and he's quoting $70 a foot which would be 3100 ish on the max.

And some info:
  • High solids premium silica coating
  • 10H hardness with extreme silk-like surface
  • Ultimate gloss & shine
  • Repels water, oil & dirt
  • 2 year warranty
  • Specially developed for the Marine industry



Just drag the max out to Havasu have it done and then use it while you're there! LOL I'll show you the ropes ;) :D

A primer coat?

What brand of coating is he using?

Very fair price.

If anything it would be overkill. But he probably knows his product. If he truly does all that as well as your motors then that is actually a good price.

I use our P&S coating and I do 2 coats. Easily get 3 years out of the coating.

Thank-you.....I appreciate the info......I was hoping since the boat was in new condition that the costs would not be as high.....as with everything else I am sure you get what you pay for

most body shop supply shops can get you the products. i did my own boat with Malco ceramic coat. starter kit was 120 and a refill bottle was 60. did my boat with two coats. helps with the staining but doesnt stop it. i cant understand how they charge 3k to do a boat.
