At Ceramic DNA, we tailor our coating selection depending on the material and stress level of each area of your vessel:
We use high-durability ceramic coatings that bond deeply for maximum UV protection and gloss.
We recommend a mid-tier coating with better flexibility and abrasion resistance.
We use high-durability ceramic coatings that bond deeply for maximum UV protection and gloss.
Specific marine-grade formulas ensure adhesion and clarity across all substrate types.
Our multi-year strategy ensures you know exactly what each coating delivers up-front—durability, gloss level, chemical resistance—so you can budget and maintain confidently for 3–5 years.
We start with a full wash, clay-bar decontamination, and paint correction (if needed), removing oxidation or imperfections.
Coatings are applied indoors or in shaded areas to avoid flash-spotting or dust adhesion.
Each coating layer is hand-applied with leveling between layers, ensuring uniform gloss and performance.
Surfaces cure over several hours to days. We finish with a detailed inspection for high spots or inconsistencies.
Here are some common questions users search online about boat ceramic coatings—answered based on industry best practices and customer experience:
True Nano-ceramic coatings do not crack or peel off when used properly along the install guidelines. These are thin film coatings and very flexible, so the thin layer has no way to crack off or chip up unless it is overused in an improper fashion. However, there are thicker coatings out there that can “craze” which is micro-cracking in an area that creates a hazy look. Ceramic DNA does not do this and most of the quality coatings out there will not either.
Not all coatings work across every surface. We use marine-grade coatings compatible with fiberglass, gelcoat, painted surfaces, metals, and plastic.
Yes. Coatings offer stronger adhesion, longer life span, UV and chemical resistance, and superior shine compared to waxing or sealants.
Absolutely — a properly coated surface repels water and dirt, drastically reducing cleaning time and elbow grease.
DIY kits exist, but professional application is highly recommended for durability. Proper surface prep, coating flash control, and curing environment matter.
Yes—if needed—with professional removal via machine polishing and re-prep. It won’t damage underlying gelcoat when done properly.
Now that your vessel has been corrected with precision and thoroughly cleaned, it’s time to gloss it up with the finest in marine surface science: our glimmering, pearly-sheen ceramic coatings.
At DNA Surface Concepts, we don’t just apply a generic layer of product—we execute a targeted,
surface-specific strategy using cutting-edge European ceramic technologies not yet available in the mass market.
Our coatings are the result of:
We’ve built a catalog of coatings and application techniques that allow us to accurately forecast cost of ownership and maintenance for each client.
Every surface on your vessel is treated individually, based on:
We’ve built a catalog of coatings and application techniques that allow us to accurately forecast cost of ownership and maintenance for each client.
Smooth Gelcoat
Layered with soft microfiber-leveling for deep gloss and slick finish.
Non-Skid & Cushions
Applied in a wet-coat fashion for high utility and durability, using self-leveling chemistry.
Stainless & Aluminum
Coated with wet-cure, long-bonding ceramic formulas designed for 6–7 years of service.
Each zone is documented and assigned to a trained technician following our internal Company Cam checklist. Every step is recorded and verified.
We go a step beyond traditional services:
This level of visibility has become a client favorite in West Palm Beach and Jupiter—where customers not only get stunning boats but also feel part of the craftsmanship journey.
We use a strategic lineup of coatings, each with specific strengths:
PermX
Aluminum, brushed stainless steel
Wet-coat style, bonds for 6–7 years
DNX
Vinyl, plastic, gelcoat, paint
Flexible, long-lasting across common surfaces
InfiniteX
Non-skid, hatches, value areas
Budget-conscious with high performance
Note: Each coating differs in:
Thickness, Cure rate, Surface feel and Chemical resilience
But they all share the same goal: longer life, easier cleaning, and better long-term performance.
We don’t just install coatings—we monitor, measure, and maintain them:
This gives us—and you—a full understanding of how our system performs under pressure, season after season.
What makes DNA Surface Concepts the top choice in South Florida isn’t just the product or just the team—it’s the synergy:
One massive, energetic ceramic coating machine powered by chemistry, craftsmanship, and care.
