    Boat Advice Needed

    Just when I thought I had my boat pricing dialed in, roughly $30/ft for exterior buffing, I get thrown a serious curveball. This gentleman would like me to wash, buff, remove mildew from 3 areas (rear, cabin, and front bow), and wax his sunsation boat. I believe it is a 32 foot boat, but the problem is it has a huge vinyl decal covering the entire sides of the boat. Which I am not quite sure how to address?

    So my questions are:
    1) How to price this boat accordingly?
    2) How would I approach the decal to get it looking somewhat better? (I am assuming a paint cleaner)

    Any other advice would be greatly appreciated!

    not sure on the pricing adjustment..i charge 15/foot for wash and polishing with AIO...

    on the decals, also maybe not the best idea but I polished over decals on the two boats I did....

    Duetto vs ...boat=

    and this one (BUT they were much smaller decals than you are dealing with so I would not take my advice here)

    Thanks for the reply. Does that $15/ft include any interior work?
