I placed a big order on the 4th hoping it was going to get shipped before the storm so I'm not in a bind after the storm.
Any updates on shipping?
I have payment confirmation

I have a 52 foot black enclosed race car trailer coming up. Did a test spot with Orange pad and HD speed and it came out great. Since its such a huge job I was thinking about coating with Mckees 37 hydro blue coating. How would i go about this with speed leaving behind its protection? Also what...
Re: Aluminum Pontoon Boat - Before & After
I just did this. Mine was a category 4. Acid wash. Wool pad/rotary/Marine31 aluminum polish. Then flex 3401/Lc Orange ccs/marine 31 aluminum polish
Went to do test spot today. Its a black 52' enclosed. I was able to get great results with my flex 3401, orange lake country, and HD Speed.
After the polish job it will be on a monthly wash program. My question is what to charge. Im thinking it will take me roughly 3 days to polish and seal...
5 times around with the polisher is too much... unless it involves sanding.
I have strictly went to marine 31 polished
Invest in a good rotary (currently using Dewalt and love it)
And a flex 3401.
Move fast and efficient. It's all about doing the best you can in the shortest amount of...
So my year old makita rotary burnt up today... 5 minutes into cutting this gel coat and it lost power and started smoking... it's done for pretty sure.
I have a flex 3401 and love it. So here's the question
Go back with another Makita or go with the flex rotary?
The flex is lighter but can...
If you can post pictures of the boat that would greatly help. Even on boats with no oxidation but do have water spots the Rupes blue pad and Marine31 captains one step make it come out great!
With the Captains compound breaking down more after each pass it helps to refine the surface.

Triangle attachment with a cotton or cheap microfiber rubber banded around it does the trick for me
Pre treat
Scrub and steam

Curious about the same thing. If no answer you can't go wrong with Rejex or Fleetwax. I love the look of my clients boats after a coat of Fleetwax... but rejex does last longer

I love them! I have so many LC ccs pads that just sit on the side lines now! Just ordered another dozen pads. Also going to try out the buff shine uro tec's and compare the two.
The rupes blues tend to not last as long as I would like.
As far as the gel coat goes. It came out great! I...
Here is a 27 Shallow sport I have been working on the last couple of days. This boat was a ex law enforcement boat (border patrol I believe)
Flex 3401
Rupes Blue 7in pad
Marine31 Captains One Step
I always start with the least aggressive method possible. But a lot of the time I can look at gel coat and see if it's going to need a wool or not. But yes I do follow with the foam. After a 2 sections (2x2) clean on the fly then do two more. I roll through about 6 pads then put them on my...
