Boat detail
Boat detail
Arms are killing me!! Got one heck of a payout for this one... Did a boat for a change.. a older gentleman I previously talked to about a car detail asked if I can do his boat.. and wow it came out good.
I don't have many before shots, the boat is fairly new just had some salt residue on everything that needed to be polished off.
here is what i got...
the back was nothing but 'flat' white from salt and grime..polished it down nice and shiny!
originally the emblems where spotted with salt residue.. got them shining like new!
spots all over!
taken just a few sections over..
look along the bottom you can see some scuffs from the plastic wrap that was on the boat..
tried my best, got it down to nearly invisible.
spotted window trim
after
same spot after:
feels good to be relaxing with a drink by my side..
Yesterday worked on it from 11am-7pm. Today was 1-4pm for the finish. well worth the time and effort though!

That came out really nice. My buddy lived in Florida for a few years and made a really good living detailing boats. Maybe if your ever looking for a relocation to a warmer climate you could do that.
Long Island isn't a bad place to keep a detailing business, yea winter is a bummer but its a island for gods sake...you can go all 4 directions and find boats/docks. He said he'll let his friends at the marina if they need anything done. & every car detail is done in one period of time. its crazy what some people charge around here just for a car!!

btw, next week or the week after he wants me to clean up his 100% all original yellow 1985 corvette. The paint is a little oxidized from sitting under a cover for so long..it looks so beautiful though! I can't wait
