    Canyon Lake owners with jet skis typically work out of Canyon Lake (at the lake). Slip-kept boats at Cypress Bend Marina, Mountain Springs Resort, Cranes Mill Marina. Trailer launches at Cranes Mill Park ramp and Comal Park ramp. Hard mineral water from Comal Springs feed leaves spots if rinses aren't quick.

    Why Canyon Lake

    Built for Canyon Lake owners.

    Canyon Lake is where we spend most of our boat-detail days. Slip rentals at Cypress Bend, Mountain Springs, and Cranes Mill, plus the dense network of lakeside RV resorts (Yogi Bear's, Hidden Valley, Sandy Beach, Hill Country Retreat) means we're at the lake almost daily April through October.

    Owner profile. Lakeside cabins and homes, weekend warriors with bass and pontoon boats at the slip, snowbird Class A and 5th-wheel owners at the resort, and a small but committed sailboat community.

    Jet skis live a punishing life in Texas summers. They're trailered, launched, ridden hard, pulled back out, and parked in a hot garage or under a canvas cover where they bake until the next weekend. Bumper gelcoat scuffs from dock contact. Footwell carpets shred and stink of lake water. Saddle vinyl rips at the seams from kids jumping on. Engine compartments collect a thin film of fuel, oil, and salt or hard-water residue depending on where you ride. Most owners have two or three skis they want done at once — and most local detailers don't take PWCs because they're awkward to work on. We do them all day.

    How we work on yours

    Jet skis protocol Canyon Lake edition.

    01

    Pre-rinse top + bottom + intake grate to flush lake debris, sand, weeds, and loose dirt.

    02

    Hand-wash with PWC-safe soap and a microfiber mitt — no automatic brushes that scratch gelcoat.

    03

    Gelcoat polish with a small-pad DA polisher — get into the contours that big pads miss.

    04

    Bumper scuff inspection and spot polish; severe gouges flagged for gelcoat filler service (referral).

    05

    Footwell deep brush with non-skid-safe cleaner; rinse thoroughly to clear sand and grit.

    06

    Saddle vinyl: marine cleaner, sunscreen-stain pass, UV conditioner. Stitching inspected for tearing.

    07

    Engine compartment wipe-down — never sprayed. Microfiber cloths and PWC-safe degreaser only.

    08

    Jet pump intake grate cleaned (sand and weeds), pump nozzle wiped, reverse bucket lubricated lightly.

    09

    Stainless handlebar trim, footrest plates, and tie-down loops polished.

    10

    Decal inspection and restoration with vinyl polish if faded. Trailer wash + tire dressing for trailered skis.

    Canyon Lake questions

    What owners always ask.

    Yes — Canyon Lake (at the lake from Canyon Lake) is one of our core service areas for jet skis. We work slip-kept boats at Cypress Bend Marina and Mountain Springs Resort and ramp-side jobs at Cranes Mill Park ramp. We bring our own water and power.

    Yes — most of our PWC customers have two or three skis. Multi-ski bookings get a per-ski discount. We typically do a family fleet of three in 6-8 hours.

    Light scuffs we polish out. Medium scuffs we polish and conceal as much as possible. Deep gouges that show fiberglass underneath need a gelcoat filler — we refer those to a local gelcoat repair shop and finish the detail around the repair.

    Never. Engine bays on PWCs are tight and full of electronics — ECUs, stators, ignition coils — that don't appreciate water. We wipe down with microfiber and PWC-safe degreaser only. Safe and effective.

    Yes — typically 6-12 months on gelcoat with regular freshwater rinses between rides. Ceramic dramatically reduces hard-water spots and makes weekly rinse-and-wipe maintenance trivial.

    Yes. Sand grinds into non-skid footwell texture and requires a stiff-bristle brush, flood-rinse, and then a UV-safe protectant. We do this on every PWC detail.

    A standard wash, polish, vinyl, and engine wipe starts at $200 per ski. Heavy oxidation, ceramic coating, or scuff polishing pushes to $300-450. Multi-ski packages save $30-50 per ski.
