Spring is here and I hauled the power washer down to Urbanna, She was dirty anyway but the fire left a film of dirt/soot over everything.
It never fails to amaze me how power washing jet gets way deeper than just scrubbing. I should have taken some before pics but I was too focused on getting a ton of work done in a small window. So here are a few “after Pics”
Jean advised me to use this natural cleaner, it really did cut through the dirt way better than just water alone.
Finally I had enough time to compound and polish the aft end of the cockpit.
She came up so white. I know that I will never get a gloss finish again without paint but if I can keep from committing to painting that will be great.
Next job is polish the rest of the glass then paint new non skid on the blue!

Lookin’ good, Adam. I’ve taken the same approach to the deck and cockpit – as long as I can keep it clean and looking respectable, I’ll put off painting.

I’ll have to try the Zep, usually I just use boat wash or some soft scrub. Did you feed it into the pressure washer? Or spray and soak? Looks like it did a great job. I’m a week or two behind you, windows are next on my list as well…

Hey there, I feed it through the washer with the soak nozzle, let it sit for a few minute then rinsed with a 45 degree nozzle. It took a lot of the oxidized gel coat off too which will help make the compounding easier.
