Thinking of doing a how to on buffing hulls,Seeing if anyone would even be interested

I have buffed out many hulls and I have had great results from even the worst looking hulls. I just got 2 95 xps that are in really rough shape and will be buffing them soon. I was thinking in maybe taking pictures step by step and putting them in a how to. I recently did one on restoring faded hoods and got little responce to that. So before I do the effort of making one I was just seeing if anyone would be interested in it. Here is a few of pictures of the finished product.

and I dont have any special polishers or buffers everything came from the local auto store, I just tried a few different products until I found the ones that worked best

Sure... a "How to" would be good.

People ask all the time, but I don't think that we have a pictorial on here.

BTW... nice graphics. :thumbsup:

 

[bigJake]

yes, please do. Do you buff over the OEM decals or do you avoid those areas?

 

[Matt Braley]

It's what I need the worst! This FL sun has not been kind(nor has the salt). I have gotten deep into the mods and repairs but need to learn how to make them pretty again.

I'd be interested for sure. Tx doesn't like pretty boats and jet ski's

 

[hobojoe]

I'll pay attention. Any tips on fixing chips in the hull too?

 

[bell99man]

Please do! That is next on my list! I'm trying to wait til the fall to start patching a few chips and scratches. After that she'll need a good buff.

May a suggest a video? just throw it on YouTube.

and we DO expect to see hot girls in bikins washing that ski before you buff it. Rubbing big soapy bubbles all over and carressing it and ... oh baby..rubbing and buffing and.... oh.......oh... um, i gotta go.

 

[doc12]

Yes please do it!

 

[REGENER8]

Yes please do, interested in the step to do this !

 

[Matt Braley]

I think you would have trouble finding a more positive response than this. Hope your calling the modeling agency to hire those girls for the video.:drool5:

Ill be waiting on the new DIY buff thread. I need to buff mine and I have no idea what materials to use

 

[nevitt4]

yea i buff mine out to but it would nice to see if u do it like me, can always use tips on stuff

 

[hypersniper2010]

yes please make a video or a how to with materials needed. i have 2 skis and 2 jetboats that need a buff sooooooo badly its not even funny. i dont mind putting in some hardcore elbow grease if its gonna make my toys shine again.

 

[bmocken]

I am in as well! I am looking for info on how to take care of scratches that are deep enough to show white on a red ski. Tried to get the Gel Coat repair kit to match the paint but it didnt work out.

 

[joaquin12345]

Would be great. I have been throwing that idea around as i have two skis that need a reallly good buffing. I have bought some random things that supposedly would work but I dont know if im just doing it wrong. so your how to would greatly be appreciated and when done I will also post pics of my experience with your info that I learn.

 

[Jetskigoodies]

Ok, well with the overwhelming responce i will be starting on one on sunday and i will get the thread up probably monday.

 

[nammer]

i'm interested, thanks!!!

 

[RFoster130]

great idea and thanks!!!

 

[cumminshoss92]

great idea i think everyone should take some time and give there toys a little tlc lets keep the older skis around longer looking brand new when i buff my ski im used to painting cars so i go over it with machine glaze rubbing compound and yes i do used a rotating buffer if you know how to use one it makes a world of difference than a orbital buffer than take some swirt remover and after buff it out with 3 nice coats of wax ive got so many compliments im willing to help this forum make a name also message me if you want help . glad to see guys like me care about how there toys look
