Detailed: A Boat

[Dust2Glory]

Ok boys and girls, my last post for a week. Don't be sad , cause when I get back I have another 40ft rv to do again !

I definately did not know what I was getting myself into when I did this boat. When the cust initally called I quoted $10 a ft. Price would go up if condition was bad. Which it was. The owners had it stored in a wooden storage building, in which the roof was leaking so in turn it rotted alot of the seats. So the cust takes out of storage and parks in in the drive way, uncovered, under a bunch of trees!!! From one hell hole to another! I get to the boat and look inside and tell the owner $275, the boat is a 20ft'r. I had to leave after washing the exterior to empty out my extractor and make up some strong APC solution, and grab a ton of MF's. I went through 3/4 of my interior MF's and I have ALOT of MF's. I scrubbed that deck by hand, on my hand's and knees. The pics aren't my traditional format cause not too many are the same... so the befores, then afters.

Exterior:
Special Soap, ARO via foam gun
(filled the 32oz bottle half full of ARO, this stuff is amazing)
long brush and grit guard bucket

360 via UDM and Yellow LC pad
Final Wipe RL QD

RL QD for final interior wipe down

I have a Chaparral in the same color. Great comeback...$275.00 for all that work was a steal. :awesome:

i should of probably charged more, but people in my area are money tight, needed the work.

That's the same kind of crap I used to get on trade in......hadn't been run in years, filthy, rotten, stained. And they wondered why they couldn't get top trade value!!!

Nice work, even Roll Off would have a tough time on that one.

Great job...that boat was a mess...but you did great bringing it back..but like Pat said....275.00 was a steal for the owner....the severity of the inside made it a 475.00 job all day long.....


Great outcome....did a great job....

Great job with that boat! That interior was seriously neglected. A shame what happened to those seats.

Man what a turn around, that boat was trashed. You made it look like new. Well done Dust, looks like new. Yea, it's to bad those seats are they way they are. That boats looks like a nice size of boat too.

Thank's for sharing bro.

You did a very nice job on that bad boy. What a mess. I don't envy anyone that details boats. They're not my favorite at all.

 

[Rey05]

You really had a job ahead of you. Glad it turned out well!
