I rubbed on this for a few hours today! Owner didn't want a machine placed on the finish so I applied Collinite #476 by hand, hand polished all the metals. Interior detail next week and then off to the lake it goes.
 
That would suck doing by hand. I would charge that guy 4 times as much if he wants it done by hand lol Lookin good though!
 
It was tough, no doubt! My arms are very sore this morning..lol I did charge a higher price than my normal price so I made it worth my while.
 
dang! by hand!? you are brave! why the heck did he not want a machine put to it? nice work!

what does the sticker on the back say? "Too Loud?" then what? i cant make it out.

The stickers read "Too Loud? Buy some ear plugs!"

The owner is very picky about this boat, for obviously reasons, but even after informing him that machine polishing it with a finishing pad wouldn't harm his boats finish, he was still requesting wax to be applied by hand and removed by hand. Just doesnt want to chance it I guess. Heck, he's got $10,000 windshields on there that I was told to not mess with either. Apparently they need a specialized cleaner and towel??? It's just acrylic so i'm not sure what the big deal is.
