Sounds good bro, keep your head up and work hard. Nothing worth while is ever easy.

[@marcusharrison3141]

Using this video tomorrow… I will wash it good with the Dawn/Super-clean mix and dry… I will go with chop top and heavy cut 50-50 for the top side toe rail with my DA and wool pad… then polish it up with a foam pad and Jescar… wipe everything down… I will do the interior with Jescar and find a drill detail brush to save time and energy with the seats… Thanks Drake…

Sounds great! Glad I could help!

[@32610nighthawk]

From Austin Texas, I started detailing about a month ago, and I literally just detailed a boat for a client to sell. (1998 sea ray 210) super inspired by you man. Started blasting my Snapchat with videos of myself on the boats, making money doing something so incredible and documenting and sharing the experience. Thank you for all that you do!!!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks for following, best of luck 🔥💪😎

[@brianwankowski3086]

Glad you are back doing these videos. Came across this today after I just came from looking at a boat to detail. Haven’t done any customer boats years so this one was a great help. The time and price and your process gave me good ideas.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Glad I could help 😎

[@SargeGreenGladdy]

love some shine supply being used in videos, as someone born and raised in ventura county its cool to see them getting the fame they deserve. would recommend using some burn out stacked with daddy o to get a super glossy finish. slick back is very good stuff tho as well. i tend to save it for my coating jobs. its great at leveling any high spots missed from the wipe down stages.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Absolutely!! It’s awesome stuff 😎🔥

[@glenn4946]

Excellent video, glad to see these back from you again....luv these type of videos from you

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks brother!!

[@terryhillyer529]

Very nice job. You can get to perfection without wetsanding. A dude up in Chelan WA is absolutely killing it with 3M Super Duty, 3M Heavy Cut, and 3M Perfect-It EX AC. Executives from 3M spent a whole day with him last week being shown how to use their own products more effectively. Lee has done 150 boats per year for the last 15 years.

[@DrakesDetailing]

You may need to heavy cut several times to equate to wet sanding. I would say do whatever they told you, it is there product after all!

[@terryhillyer529]

Hey Drake, thanks for the reply. This is the interesting part. 3M did not go to see Lee in Chelan to show him how to use the 3M products. 3M went to see Lee so that Lee could show 3M how to use Super Duty and Heavy Cut compounds differently. See the video from May 6 from “Local boydidgood”.

[@tannerhendricks8132]

Terry, who is this guy? Im from Chelan, Wa.

[@terryhillyer529]

@@tannerhendricks8132 Hello Tanner. Lee used to be with Deckhand Detail in Seattle, which is/was the second largest boat detailing company in the US. He is now with Chelan Shine. He is doing miracles with only compounding and no wetsanding. He has a 300 videos on his YT channel, but only 1400 subscribers. He has this crazy nasty red Bayliner that they use for a before/after demonstration and also for training. The boat sat in the desert for 20 years and is trashed and gross. I have a lot of respect for what Drake has done with his business and YT channel. My sincerest hope would be to see Drake get some free lessons on compounding from Lee in exchange with helping Lee gain more KZbin traction. Win-Win for everybody. Redding CA isn’t that far from Chelan WA.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Lee and I have 2 different methods and that’s totally fine. There is more than one way to make a boat shine. Lee does great work and so do I :) Lee should pay you for advertising on my my channel :)

[@markmccay2644]

Love your videos, and the attitude you present them. Question? I have a snake shaped scratch on my boat, I’ve used 1000 grit wet sandpaper, but now having a hard time erasing the sand marks. Looks find after heavy cut but is back the next day. Any recommendations?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thank you, what machine and pad are you using ? Also, use a light to see the sanding scratches, that will help you see them to fully remove them

[@angelaparker4911]

seat transformation looks amazing, I did not see the after on the hull cushions. Ours look similar-were you able to clean those or did the customer decide to have cushions remade?

[@DrakesDetailing]

I cleaned them as best as I can, but for the road they’ll probably need re-done.

[@DimgodLandmark]

Great work brother

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks ✌️

[@puppysquad1797]

Have any tricks for compounding and polishing around cover snaps on a boat. having to do it by hand.

[@DrakesDetailing]

If you can, remove them. If they are the kind you can’t remove, either invest in a mini machine or just work your buffer right in there, and clean out all the snaps later 😎

[@davidcorbett3821]

What speed did you have the wool pad at ?

[@DrakesDetailing]

We typically run wool pads at lower speeds to allow a better and deeper cut. Anywhere from 600-1800rpm. 600 being on the heavier cut side, 1000-1800 being closer to the medium cut compound side of things.

[@doug2202]

I have a 31’ center console with heavy oxidation and scratches. What 2 step products you recommend and required pads? How much product of each will I need

[@DrakesDetailing]

shinesupply.com/collections/marine-products Here’s a link to the products I love ! if it has heavy oxidation and scratches, he will need more than two steps. Heavy, cut compound, medium, cut compound, then polish, then seal. I’d recommend shine supply heavy, cut on a white wall pad with a rotary, then shine supply chop top on a yellow wool pad on a rotary. A polish shine supply wake up, then seal it up with Jescar power lock. All of the products can be found in my link above. At checkout, feel free to use my discount code: DRAKE15

[@joejeep1997]

Great video everyone can relate to! Thank you!

[@DrakesDetailing]

😎

[@fccquoter19]

amazing work!!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Glad you think so! 😎🔥🔥

[@outdooradventurerseries]

Looks great. How much do you charge for a two step like this for a 17 ft center consol boat?

[@DrakesDetailing]

I charge around $15-$20 per foot per step of detailing that I do. So say that I do polish and a wax, then that is two steps. So that would be $30 per foot

[@skullhart]

New sub just catching up on your work. Awesome job for sure!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mrfofung]

Wow. Reminds me of my blue exterior on my Yamaha. Amazing job. Detailer worked on it last year. Said it needed one more time working on it after a year. Your work is 😳. I agree $1300/1500

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks for watching and following!

[@emodakbary]

Hey bro, would you ever just do a one step of Menzerna 400 for inside gelcoat? Or you always finish up with Jescar? I have alot of clients that i find the inside in great shape and want just a "one" step.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Hey, yes! I have done this in the past for the boats that only needed a one step in certain places

[@mattlukie]

Great video! I'm a huge Shine Supply fan. I'm a hobby detailer, but I'm curious if these steps would work on an RV??

[@DrakesDetailing]

Yes, but you have to be carful with your pressure as RV gelcoat is a lot thinner than gelcoat on a boat

[@pauliwalnutz]

Looks fantastic. Great transformation. Wish I could get those products here in Canada.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks man!

[@cristianvelazquez1509]

Thanks for the videos..I learned a lot..

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks for your support!

[@stephenlewis3463]

24ft cabin cruiser planning on doing wet sand process 4 step. Wet sand, heavy cut, med cut, polish…do you recommend 32oz for the compounds or should I grab the gallons…also aside from the wet sanding should I be buffing and polishing my boat every year or should a maintenance polish keep me where I need to be. I live in NY where we only have about 5 months of boating season

[@allaboutdetails3356]

No You won’t need to wet sand and buff it out again for awahile. Remember there’s only so much gelcoat layer on there to begin With . Then you hit the primer underneath… so no won’t need to go in heavy unless you leave it in direct sun and don’t wax then oxidation will be back in 5 years or less . just keep adding wax and touching up the areas as needed.

[@DrakesDetailing]

It may need a light polish again the following year, but just see how it goes, all you may need to do is seal it!

[@nightshiftregulator1836]

Can you buff over the numbers and registration sticker?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Yes you can. Just use a tad bit lighter pressure than when you normally do it

[@MDROWDYRIDES]

Another great tutorial. Thank you brother!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks for watching! 🔥😎

[@mistermosley3012]

Dude you're awesome 🤙🏿🎯💯

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks, ha

[@roccofalvello8057]

This was a great vid! What do you have in that bottle you use in your test spots for the pre compound clean and between steps?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Just a cleaner to remove the conjoined residue

[@MichaelGiebelhausen]

For pricing purposes (per foot / per step), how many total steps are we looking at here? Is it three: 1) wash and wax package, 2) cutting, 3) polishing or am I missing a step (e.g., clutch application). Thanks!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Yes, exactly! $15 per foot for every single step

[@BreakwaterN.C.]

Whats difference in this application between Slick Back and Wake Up?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Wake is a polish and protectant meant to rejuvenate a current coating- Slick back is a primer polish that you do right before you apply your polymer sealant or ceramic coating to help it adhere better.

[@paulfashingbauer2608]

How long does the boat stay protected after this if it’s not in the water? I live in northern Wisconsin and was thinking about doing this inside during the winter. Would wax and sealant still be just as effective if the boat sat inside afterwards for a few months before summer comes?

[@DrakesDetailing]

If the boat is sitting inside and not coming into contact with the rec, UV, then the wax will last a very, very, very long time.

[@jeffmurphy9987]

Drake I’m a long time follower. In the past you really seem to like Starke and Menzerna products. How would you compare say Starke Elevate or Menzerna 400 to the Shine Supply products? For instance Shine Supply Chop Top is similar to what in the Starke line. Thanks

[@DrakesDetailing]

Chop top is similar to menzerna 400 and Starke elevate. But I would say chop top is far better than both products. It’s a bit dusty but that’s because chop top has zero fillers. It’s an amazing product

[@pacha.racing]

Awesome job!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks!

[@josephgadoury1057]

Wish you were in California ... I have an Ocieanis 55 that would need you touch

[@DrakesDetailing]

I am in Cali! Ha I’m up In Redding CA

[@001mladen]

why does the shine from polishing dissapear after 3-4 months on boat in sea??

[@DrakesDetailing]

It’s the UV from the sun that dolls down the surface, you need to keep up, waxing and sealing the boat in order to protect the surface from getting faded by the sun, it’s not so much the ocean.

[@good2know606]

You did another video which you used muradic acid on the bottom to get the freshwater gunk off, what was your dilution ratio?

[@DrakesDetailing]

I use it straight, very carefully, scrubbing it really good and then rinsing it very quickly

[@AustinSkinner-li2tc]

What’s the benefit/difference between the polishers?

[@DrakesDetailing]

[@brentnewton4388]

Do you polish the aluminum on wake tower?

[@DrakesDetailing]

You can! Just didn’t do it in this case

[@tylerdominiak3210]

So slick back will remove buffer trails with an orange foam pad ???

[@tylerdominiak3210]

I’m just confused on when you use burn out over that they seem like the same product ?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Shine supply “Wake Up” is more for removing swirls with an orange pad.

[@DETAIL1-jme]

@@DrakesDetailing What are the best ways to get jobs for boat detailing?

[@shanescholtz1608]

Just wondering if there’s a benefit to using the edge of the pad instead of laying it flat on the boat

[@DrakesDetailing]

You can cut deeper and apply more pressure if you angle a rotary slightly while cutting

[@richardgautier959]

Great video! Curious as to whether you buffed the painted trailer for this customer or not. It looked much better at the end (along with the boat).

[@ronf4503]

Hey Drake. Love the videos. I am struggling with some very stubborn water spots on an anodized aluminum t top. What would you recommend to get these off? Is WSP your go to?

[@DrakesDetailing]

I’ll need to be carful on anodized aluminum, you can try wsp but it’s hard to safe if it work or not. Try it, if that doesn’t work you may need todo a light polish work a 3 inch gray force lake country pad on a rotary using menzerna 400

[@ZacharyBaxter-b2k]

Hey Drake, I am noticing you are straying something before compounding, I am wondering what that is. Water? Rubbing Alcohol?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Typical just a wipe down before buff, then before I apply the cylinder, ceramic coating, I typically do an alcohol wipe to remove any excess oil.

[@randywardell5824]

Thanks Drake for another great instructional video! Just a question about products. Are you thinking that the Shine products may replace Stark in you lineup? Also do you think any of them compare to the jescar ultra lock plus? Just looking to decrease the number of options to consider. Thanks

Yes starke is 100% out. I am really liking the shine supply stuff and plan on rolling with it until I find something better! I don’t have any experience outside of Jescar power lock. I have heard mixed reviews on the ultra lock

Hey Drake! It Came out awesome man! I'm a mobile detailer out here in Southern California, OC. I had a question. So Using Dawn soap on CARS is a Huge No No, is it ok to use professional grade soap ie. P&S's Pearl Shampoo on the boat? Or should I stick to your method of using Dawn? One more question. Did you do a 1:1 ration of Dawn in your foam cannon? I'm going to be detailing my friends boat here in about a week.It will be my FIRST boat detail and Paint Correction.

Don’t use Dawn unless you are trying to strip any sort of sealant or wax off the car, or you are going to follow up with a sealant right afterwards

Why does everyone fast forward and blank out the audio when using the polisher??? This is the most important part of HOW to do this! How much compound do you put on? How fast do you run the polisher? What does it sound like, RPM? You waste so much time talking about nothing, and then the most important parts are fast forwarded and basically skipped. Crazy
