I only use boats that need real detailing work.

My history on any forum is a history where I fully document the before condition of the projects.

I prefer projects, be they boats or cars that are on the extreme side of damage as it's easier to capture the before pictures.

The black boat I had scheduled for the last class canceled on short notice. I was able to get the red to replace it.

It wasn't as in bad of condition as all the previous boats I've used in classes but it still had what I would call medium oxidation plus some detailer buffed it out and stopped after only using a wool pad on a rotary buffer.

So it had oxidation, water spots, stains and holograms. And we machine sanded it and then buffed it to perfection.









Good question.
