Think I could polish a 29' in 2 weeks.


Good luck Bobby...

Our tally so far on a 19' GlobeTrotter-
Parts removal: 4 hrs.
Clear-Coat Striping: 24 hrs.
Silicone sealant removal (seams): 32 hrs.
Recaulk with Vulkem & Parbond: 16 hrs.
Compounding with Nuvite "C": 64 hrs. (only half finished)
Polishing with Nuvite "F7" then "S": ??? hrs. (don't even what to think about it!)

Mirror finish like the Manning's: Priceless

Impediments to our steady progress have included: afternoon rain showers, 
temperatures over 90 deg., darkness, rallies, broken tools, inquisitive neighbors, 
"helpful" friends, happy hour, etc. Hum...
