Detailing the new jet skis....

Alright well......recently we bought 2 brand new sea doo RXP jet skis......yes.....the ones with 215 hp

ANYWAYS when we went to pick them up they said "we're gonna wax them really quick blah blah blah. I told them no and they said they HAD to. Anyway..when we got the boats to the water the horror i had thought before.....came true.

Wax wasn't properly buffed off......and of course......SWIRL marks.....ALL over. My thing is...would it be ok for me to strip what they have on there.....and maybe use some NXT or what should I do?

I wouldn't buy anything if they HAD to detail it first. Take it back, either they fix it...or you get a new one

I just used Klasse AIO and SG on my two jetski's this past weekend. Left a great finish and protection should be better than a carnuaba in the salt water

well the thing with them HAVING to detail it first.....is because it was "included" in buying them.....i had refused...but since i was unable to stay.....they did so anyway.

as for the aio and sg.....since we're not going to be using these in salt water...you think nxt should be ok?

NXT doesn't last very long when it's on a car...Imagine how long it would last in constant water going high speeds

The real jetskis are standups. I own a sitdown for now(Im in the process of getting a standup).

Ill give you a warning xtremeracer on those rxps. Make sure you buy the extended warranty. Sea doo is having problems with the clutch in the supercharger as it is, and they will fail to warranty it after a year. That way, u wont be kicking yourself in the a$$ if your engine quits on you. Just a word of advice.

We own a stand up on and 4 sit down ones. The stand up one is alot more fun, since you can do more tricks!

Our boat ( 250 merc) can do more like 74 mph, and its awsome!
