Big boat

How much should i charge to do this boat? This is all the information that was given to me, Here’s a pic of one like it. The wax area is above the rub rail which is just above the port holes. He wants it buffed and waxed/sealed. What products would you use? and how much should i be charging him? I want to do a good job because if it goes well he has several cars he would like me to do as well. Chris Craft continental 38 | Power boats | MyNautics.com

Re: Big boat

thats a $450.00- $600.00 job depending on the boats current condition.....local prices around here for a big boat topside only is $12-15ft......

beware that if you are not well versed in gelcoat polishing that a job like that will be a losing proposition for you...

as far as products look up my older posts on gelcoat polishing....any questions feel free to PM...

I'm Thinking around $800.00 (IF) it's not fubar

3-4 step process is a lot of work..........no idea what kind of shape it is in ?

Meguires has a complete line of compounds, based on level of oxidation
rotary buffer / 3M supper buff 2 sided white wool pad and 3M 2 sided yellow polishing pad. Can't go wrong with Collonites 885 fleet past wax .......like I said it's gona be some work !!
