Questions about detailing a boat.... - 04-03-2006, 07:25 PM

Hi All,
Looking for some answers about detailing a boat. A client of mine would like me to detail his boat but I have no idea about what kind of waxes or fiberglass treatments are needed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Any of these Meg's products work great. That is all i have ever used on any and all of the boats i have owned. Hard to really say which to begin with unless i can see how bad the hull is.

Contact Scottlee. I am in the same boat you are....no pun intended...LOL
A customer wants me to detail his boat, and I didn't know what to use. He does plenty.

Here is a link to my thread I started about boats
http://www.detailcity.org/forums/det...detailing.html

Aslo, meguiarsonline .com, has a boat detailing forum.

We sell a tremendous amount of PwC (white) to boat owners and detailers
It works great on gel-coats and can be applied in the sun without any problems.

Yes, we are still working on the right pre-cleaner for abused gel-coats.

I was going to try the PwS on my Uncles gel-coated motorhome or would PwC be a better choice?
