  • Detail Process with PC

    Could some please review this detail job on a salt-water fiberglass boat. The boat is in the salt water all season long.

    Megs Boat Polish - #8006 Pad - G100a setting 5
    Megs Boat Wax - #9006 Pad - G100a setting 3

    The wax will be removed with a MF bonnet over the 8006 Pad.

    I dont mind applying by hand if necessary. I am looking for the highest gloss and best durability no matter how long it takes, elbow grease needed or cost of products. Simply the Best.

    If your boat does not have any swirls, oxidation, or scratches that you would like to remove then that would work after a wash. I personally like the look of #63 Flagship Premium Marine Wax offers me on my boat after a coat of #3 machine glaze.

      What I use

      I use the Meguiar's 85 Diamond Cut Compound on a rotary buffer with a foam pad to polish my GEL COAT (Not Paint), and finish with Meguiar's 21 polymer sealant on a Porter Cable with a foam pad . It works great and last as long as anything else I have tried here in Southern California.

      If your boat is painted, you would probably want to use something less aggressive and only a Porter Cable or by hand.
