Hi all,

I hurt my hand a few weeks ago so I am not able to wax my boat and do a lot of buffing. I can rub with my right hand but can't do much heavy work.

Does anyone know ow a spray on or other "really easy" protection I can apply to my boat with less than normal effort? My boat does not need repair just protection. I even thought of not waxing the hull this year. But would like to put something on it.

Any ideas? (OH, the waxing guy wanted what I consider an unreasonable price). My boat is 38 LOA.
 
I have been using turtle wax express. Water still beads the next season. Less than two hours to wax my 40 footer. It comes in a pump spray bottle. I use it on imron and on gelcoat.
 
TurboWarp, I have several buffer/polishers but use this one more than any of the others. It's a one hand machine. I apply cleaner/wax with it; change pad & remove dried cleaner/wax. Can all be done with one hand. You might have to put unit between your knees to change pads but that is very infrequently. I apply to one full side of hull (37') & go back and remove/buff. Can be done.

You have to get Dri-Wash online. Google it.
 
Are you still able to stroke a check? Just kidding!!!

Sorry about your hand. The new products are so much better than when I was a kid hand compounding and simonizing cars and boats for days on end....

There is an aerosol called Fast Wax that works pretty well.

Good luck.
 
Check out Gel Gloss spray wax/cleaner. Stuff works great and is very easy to use. You can find it at most hardware and Home Depot stores.
 
Leverage Polish. Google it. I use it on my boat all the time after buffing for the protection. There is NOTHING easier to put on or off after you have the oxidation off.
 
What type of buffer is that, and where do you find it?

This year will be our first doing it ourselves.
Thanks.

No you cannot, if you search on google you should be able to find another vendor for it.
