Wanted - Pro Detailer in Lake Havasu City - Boat Detailing


One of my very good and long-time friend Mike, out in Lake Havasu City has some kind of issue in the gelcoat in his boat.


He's not sure what the problem is and wants someone that really knows what they're doing to take a look at it and if it can be fixed then he'll hire you to fix it.

Here's what I think after looking at the pictures, there some level of mottling on the surface, that is the surface has some texture instead of being completely smooth. A little machine sanding with some 3M Trizact #3000 grit followed by compounding and polishing will fix the problem.

Thing is, most people don't have a tool for using 3" sanding discs. The old Griot's 3" Mini Polisher works and so does the new Griot's G8



So do we have anyone in the Lake Havasu City area?
