If this is in the wrong section then please feel free to move, it does have a 5.7l v8 so i thought that might count.

 

Spent the whole day yesterday detailing our boat. Its been used a fair bit this season and really needed a good going over so took the Kestral and some polish to see what could be done. There were some really bad watermarks and sun damage which has 90% been fixed. I would like to have spent more time on it but i was working on the floating lift which was a bit awkward and not much room.

Any way here are some pics before i started...

I dont have any during pictures but basically, used the same methods as i would a car.

and finally...

only job i didnt have time for was the carpet although that has been done now, as well as the engine bay but that is a different story.

 

Cheers for looking

wakeboarding mate, hence the tower. also wakeskating and wakesurfing, have never been on two ski's in my life.

I thought the gel coat would be really soft so only took fairly fine compounds (sonus) but next time would be more confident on using something a little harsher to really get into the deeper scratches.

cheers for the comments

Should try and get to some of the local meets, we're doing a Rolling road day on 12 Sept in Woking if you fancy a run?
