    Nanopro gelcoat treatment products

    We use only Nanopro products and supply them. in our experience they are a superior product, easier to apply, less product used and speedier results. I think your boat may have been treated with another 'nano' product.

    4m RIB across the Channel

    Just curious as im due a change to my boating. I wad going to sell my bowrider and go back to my old school SIB times, I have a Honwave 3.8 airdeck with 5hp engine, this would be changed to a 20hp next spring, then the more I thought about it I saw myself ending up with a 4m RIB, more seaworthy...

    4m RIB across the Channel

    How is it that a 4m rib can do this day in day out, but a 5m bowrider cant? Just did a little reading and it seems a rib of 4m with 50hp outboard wil cross the channel with easze. So why cant a 21' bowrider?

    Polishing

    That looks like an impressive finish to me! How did you find it compared to what you normally use? For us it has taken a day off the time it takes to do a 40' MB and we use 3/4-1kg of product instead of 2kg of the old product. Cracking looking boat btw.

    Need a small RIB

    I think i posted about this before. i saw a very small tender on the back of a boat last weekend, it must only have been 6-8' long and had what i assume is a fibreglass hull and solid floor which is what im looking for to use as a work platform. Ill be going the 2nd hand route unless there are...

    Some new polishing compounds i ran a test on

    Well today was the 1st day that someone other than me had a full day using the polish. With the new foam pad and the p1500 he couldn't believe the results, he also reckons that one 1kg tub will do two 40' boats near enough, that compares to 4 KG of the 3M i used to use, asked him if he would go...

    Happy customer

    I thought my ears were burning, thank you all for the very nice comments. I may be a bit old fashioned but i like to treat each boat as if it were my own and be honest in what can be achieved in the finish, inform the customer on how far we can go then let them chose what can be done within a...

    gel coat or paint

    The metal trim on my boat and stripe on the gel must be done with dulux then. Must be the same for post office vans too.

    gel coat or paint

    Paint is fine, but from my experience suffers from oxidation so much quicker than gel coat. My boat has had a full wet sand and needs the softest of foam pads once a year to apply a glaze, precious owner had a strip painted and no matter what I do it never lasts or looks the same.
