Marine Protection Film for Boats in Everett, WA
Blue Star Auto Salon is a STEK Black Label installer in Everett, Washington, offering STEK Marine protection film (MPF), marine ceramic coating, and marine window tint for boats, jet skis, and yachts across Snohomish County and the Puget Sound region. Marine protection film shields your boat’s gelcoat from oxidation, abrasion, and fading, which means less buffing, less waxing, and more time on the water.
Why Boats Need Different Protection Than Cars
Cars and boats are not finished the same way. Automotive paint uses a hard clear coat, while boats are finished in gelcoat, which is softer and far more vulnerable to UV oxidation, dock rash, and abrasion. Boat maintenance can take weeks and serious money every season just to keep that finish looking right. STEK Marine was built specifically for that problem.
STEK Marine Protection, Three Layers of Defense
- AQUAshield Marine Protection Film (MPF). A self-healing, hydrophobic film that guards your gelcoat above the waterline against scratches from fishing rods, water skis, dock bumpers, and dirty shoes. The hydrophobic top coat means easier washing and a deep, lasting gloss. A matte or stealth conversion is available for jet skis and accents.
- AQUAcoat Marine Ceramic Coating. A hydrophobic ceramic layer formulated for the marine environment, defending against saltwater, UV, and grime while keeping cleaning quick.
- AQUAshade Marine Window Tint. A shrink-free tint that is safe on both polycarbonate and glass, for heat and glare control on the water.
What You Gain
- Less maintenance. No more weekends lost to buffing and waxing.
- Lower long-term cost. Preventing oxidation and abrasion avoids expensive gelcoat repair.
- Protected resale. A boat that looks new holds its value.
- More time on the water. Easier upkeep means the boat is ready when you are.

Marine Protection FAQ
Can you put Paint Protection Film on a boat?
Yes. STEK Marine AQUAshield is a marine protection film made for gelcoat. It is applied above the waterline to high-contact and high-visibility areas to prevent abrasion, oxidation, and UV fading.
Does Marine PPF reduce boat maintenance?
Significantly. The hydrophobic, self-healing surface repels grime and resists the everyday scratches from washing, docking, and gear, so you spend far less time buffing and waxing.
What boats can be protected?
Sport boats, fishing boats, jet skis, ski-doos, and yachts. We assess each vessel and recommend the right combination of film, coating, and tint.
Is marine protection film worth it?
Gelcoat restoration is costly and time-consuming. Protecting the finish up front typically costs far less than repeated correction and repair over a boat’s life, and it keeps the vessel looking new.
