Re: Boat Detailing Correction and Ceramic Coating Class at MTE 2020
Just picked up the side of a Bayliner Hull for my Gel-coat Correction and Ceramic Coating Class in Christmas, Florida.
This is the FIRST class on Thursday morning (starts at 8:00am) and the FIRST time a FULL DEMO Gel-Coat Correction and Ceramic Coating class has ever been taught a Mobile Tech Expo.

About a 2 hour drive one way.
I hope a lot of people attend this first class in the morning. In the past, I've not wanted the early morning time slot because,
A: Too many people stay out too late Wednesday night and party.
B: People don't naturally get up early.
C: The first classes of the day are historically less attended due to the above 2 reasons
My thoughts are that there's enough real interest in how to do gel-coat correction and ceramic coating install that anyone serious will be there.
Guess will see.
Anyone that misses the class can always travel to Stuart, Florida the next weekend and take the real-deal class.

Here's process and after results...
The CBEAST!
I used this to machine sand gel-coat. No pad stalling. Fast. No cords.

SONAX Glass Cleaner for a sanding lube. It was close by. Later I switched to water with a little soap.

Mirka Abralon #1000 Grit Sanding Disc plus a Meguiar's 6" foam interface pad. You can see it on the backing plate

And the other side - the before condition - ZERO reflection. ZERO SHINE.
