Good guess, I spent 8 hours on it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk

This is pretty old post and am not sure if you have been answered, but I will add my experience as I do a ton of boat detailing. I would say that a boat with noticeable oxidation will require a wool pad. Gel coat is extremely hard and using a foam pad will be to much work and generate a lot of...

Here are some pics of a recent Cadillac XLR I coated. It is a 2004 and as you can see in the before pics is pretty rough. The car required headlight restoration, color correction and decontamination. To complete the job I used Menzerna Medium and Super Finish. For the coating I used WG Uber...

I will throw my input in here. I just switched from McKee's Coating to WG coating. I would say they both go on quite easy. WG seems to give better feedback as for how much to use. You can tell if you are putting to much on, letting it flash to long etc. WG likes to be used very sparing and the...

I used RO Water from my pressure wash system. I then Dry the car with an air dryer. Spend about 45 minutes drying the car. I do everything possible to remove all water. The car is 100% painted as it has been fully restored. Not overly worried about rust. Now if it was not restored that would be...

If there is one thing I like detailing as much as boats, it would have to be classics. They don't get any better than this 1951 Merc I recently had the privilege of detailing. This car turned out nothing short of spectacular. For this detail I used 100% Wolfgang products. From soap, to a WG...

Exactly, from a PC. Cant find the re-size options.

Here is a recent car coating project. For this car I typically color correct as needed and seal every 6 months. This time I coated the car. To tackle this job I washed the car with Wolfgang auto bath. The soap worked well out of a pressure washer Canon. It sticks well and washes off easier than...

One step is great stuff. Pad selection is pretty critical and boats really love foam pads with more cutting power.

As you can see from the top picture the jet boat was not to bad just had a lot of scratches from people walking on the deck. The below pic is after it was buffed and waxed. I used Marine 31 Capt 1 Step and Marine 31 sealer. Thanks for looking, Jon

Yeah, that is how I use it now. Not a big deal but wanted to mention any areas where people may have an issue http://www.attention2detailhc.com

I have spent about 4 weeks with the McKee's 37 Turbo Car Dryer and it does everything as advertised. I have used it on several black cars in the desert sun, and have been impressed with the results. My only complaint is with the hose. You have to be very careful not to let the hose touch the...

You will first need to determine the thickness of the clear. From there you will need to set expectations with the customer. If there is enough clear, a light damp sand with 2000 working your way to 4000 would be my preference. Then finishing up with a light compound. If there is not enough...

Hi Mike, Now that you have been using the coatings for a while, what are your thoughts on coatings for boats vs polymer sealants? I have yet to make this jump to coatings since boats are often tied up to docks, other boats and I am not sure how coatings will hold up to the constant abuse they...
