Interior & Brightwork in West Palm
Cabin interiors, marine vinyl, teak, stainless and polished metals, engine rooms — and full automotive interiors — finished to the same standard as the hull.
Zea Detailing provides mobile interior & brightwork detailing in West Palm Beach — at Palm Harbor Marina, Safe Harbor Rybovich, Palm Beach Yacht Club & Marina, and private docks in El Cid Historic District and South Flagler Drive — for boats and cars. Licensed, bonded and insured; based in West Palm Beach; Palm Beach County.
What it is: Interior and brightwork detailing covers everything aboard that isn't the hull: upholstery and vinyl deep-cleaned and UV-conditioned, teak cleaned and brightened, stainless rails and hardware machine-polished to a mirror, and engine rooms degreased back to white. For cars, it means leather, carpets, and trim brought back to showroom condition.
Interior & Brightwork on West Palm water and driveways
A sportfish comes off the Lake Worth Lagoon into Palm Harbor Marina with salt haze on the rails, city fallout in the vinyl seams, and a cockpit walked on wet all season. Urban waterfront is its own problem: exhaust film and storm runoff settle on the same surfaces as the salt. We work in stages — alkaline cleaner and a soft brush through the piping, neutral rinse, UV conditioner only once the vinyl is bone dry. Stainless gets machine-polished with compound and a sealed finish, not wiped down, so the rails stay mirrored past the next blow.
Safe Harbor Rybovich and the Palm Beach Yacht Club both want the detailer cleared ahead of arrival, so we set access with the dockmaster and work to the crew's schedule rather than ours. Interiors go best early, before the lagoon humidity climbs and teak stops drying between steps. In El Cid and SoSo, the same visit usually covers the garage — leather, carpets and trim on the Range Rover or G-Wagon that tows the boat. We're self-contained, so a narrow historic drive or a tight finger pier changes nothing. Expect hatches open and blowers running while we work.
What West Palm does to a finish
Lagoon chop & city grime
Urban waterfront means salt plus city fallout — dust, exhaust film, storm runoff residue. Regular decontamination keeps both off your gelcoat and glass.
Historic-district access
Narrow drives and mature landscaping in El Cid are no problem — our rig is fully self-contained and sized for tight estate access.
Boat + truck combos
Plenty of South Flagler clients run a boat and the truck that tows it. We keep both protected — ceramic on the hull and the paint alike.

Interior & Brightwork in West Palm — FAQ
Good questions
Do you detail engine rooms?
Yes — engine room and bilge detailing is one of our signature services. A clean, white engine room isn't vanity: it makes leaks visible early, survey days easier, and resale conversations shorter.
Can you remove mildew from marine vinyl?
In most cases, yes — and more importantly we treat and condition the vinyl afterward so it resists coming back. Long-neglected stitching can be permanently stained; we'll tell you honestly what will and won't come out.
Do you service boats at Palm Harbor Marina or Rybovich?
Yes — marina work is routine for us. We carry the insurance certificates marinas require and coordinate slip access directly with the dockmaster when needed.
Can you detail at a house in El Cid with a tight driveway?
Yes. Our mobile setup is self-contained — water, power, lighting — and we routinely work historic properties with narrow access and landscaping to protect.
Can you do the boat at Palm Harbor Marina and the tow vehicle at the house the same day?
Usually, yes — that's a common South Flagler Drive and El Cid setup. We schedule the vessel interior and brightwork in the morning at the slip, then move to the garage for the truck's leather, carpets and trim. One trip, one crew, no second mobilization.
Will engine room degreasing put anything in the Lake Worth Lagoon?
No. Engine rooms and bilges are cleaned with contained extraction — we capture and haul out the wash water rather than pumping it overboard. That keeps us square with dock rules at Safe Harbor Rybovich and Palm Beach Yacht Club, and it's how we work everywhere in Palm Beach County.
