You missed a bit !!!!

Its always a long job that one , shoulders ache for a while after holding the buffer above your head , then the hand polish after .
We used to use hull cleaner first to get rid of the yellow staining , turns it white then that horrid diesel / exhaust stain takes a good amount of time with the polish / compound . I once worked for a owner who moaned at finger prints on varnish and GRP . Only me and the good lady as crew on a busy 70ft fly bridge motor cruiser . Oh well i guess it payed well !

Fantastic job, I used to sweat like a pig polishing the old mans 47ft Princess on the coast of the North Sea

What wax did you finish with?

PS If the day rate is good enough, can I send you my CV for the next job?

Awesome stuff! Where in the Indian ocean were you? and What products did you use?

There is a nice Sunseeker Manhatten sat in Benalmadena harbour that needs a good detail...either that or a repspray.
