Had a chance to help a friend with his boat a couple of weeks ago. This is a very nice boat but in 4 years has never had any type of protective coating on it. It spent this winter outside in pretty harsh Utah weather. I`ve got a couple of before and after pictures. They don`t really show how well this boat actually came out. It had a lot of oxidation, you can see this looking at the upper stripe in the before pictues.
Here`s a little better look at the oxidized stripe.
#1 - Washed the boat with Meguiar`s Flagship Premium Marine Wash.
#2 - Followed it up with Meguiar`s Marine Heavy Oxidation Remover.
#3 - Next we used Meguiar`s Marine Color Restorer.
#4 - Finished it up with Meguiar`s Boat/RV Pure Wax.
* - Used the PC with W-7006 pad to remove the oxidation in step #2.
* - For the last 2 steps we used the W-8006 polishing pad. I didn`t really feel like the gel coat on this boat would respond much differently using a finishing pad so we just used another polishing pad.
Here`s one of the afters.
Here`s the last pic. These pictures really don`t do the boat justice. Not quite as much detail as I would have liked but I think you can get the idea. The owner was very happy with the result.
