As a SeaDoo GTI SE owner, I am always on the lookout for products that can help me maintain the finish and protect it from the elements. This season, I tried out the Gtechniq Marine Ceramic Top and Base protection combo, and I have to say…I am impressed. This review will walk through my experience using this product and why I think it is a great choice, whether you are preparing your vessel for the boating season or giving it a solid shield before winter storage.

First Impressions and Ease of Application

Right out of the box, the Gtechniq Marine Ceramic Top and Base Protection Combo felt like a quality product. One of the standout aspects for me was how smooth the application process was. I am no stranger to ceramic coatings, but Gtechniq’s formula truly makes it simple. Both the Base and Top coats go on easily, with a smooth spread over my SeaDoo’s hull and topside areas, leaving no streaks or inconsistencies. With just a few microfiber towels and a bit of patience, I was able to cover my entire machine in no time, not that it is that large anyways, but you get the idea!

The Results

Once applied, I immediately noticed the sleek, glossy finish the ceramic coating left on my SeaDoo. Not only did it restore the depth and shine of the paint, but it also seemed to highlight every detail, curve, decal, etc.

Beyond looks, I was especially interested in how it would hold up in actual use. After several trips, where I encountered lake conditions, I was pleasantly surprised. Dirt, grime, and water residue washed off with only a quick rinse after each trip. Overall, I can safely say that this combo has kept the SeaDoo cleaner for longer, saving me a lot of time on maintenance.

Performance Benefits and Protection

One of the biggest advantages of the Gtechniq Marine Ceramic coating is its durability. It is designed to create a barrier that shields against UV rays, saltwater, and contaminants, and I found that it lives up to its promises. While out on the water, I could see the water beading and sliding off, which meant less chance of minerals and debris settling into the surface. This makes it ideal for all around protection during the active season but is equally effective if you are preparing your vessel for winter storage. By keeping it coated, I have peace of mind knowing that my SeaDoo is less likely to suffer from oxidation or other environmental damage over the colder months.

Final Verdict

Overall, the Gtechniq Marine Ceramic Top and Base have both exceeded my expectations. They deliver on both aesthetics and performance, which is what I look for in a marine ceramic product. The ease of application, combined with the long lasting protection, makes it ideal for anyone who wants to keep their watercraft in top condition year round. Whether you are looking for seasonal protection or long term storage solutions, this is a product worth considering. For my 2024 SeaDoo GTI SE, it has been a game changer, and I look forward to using it for seasons to come.
