I took Mikes boat class and we had 20 people doing the boat so i cant gauge off that. I did a 28 ft sun dancer with another detailer in 5 hrs doing two steps(polish and coating). So is it possible for just me to wax a 45 ft boat from that line up in 3 hrs?
Feeling like he wants me to do a quickie and thats not what i do so i guess thats the hard part. Should i just run with the buffer and say thats what your paying for?

Attached is a pic of another 45ft sun dancer to show. He only want me to wax above the black part and no interior. |
I would hit it with Marine 31 All-In-One Gel Coat Polish & Wax on your FLEX XC3401 equipped with a foam POLISHING pad. 2-3 passes over each area, then wipe it off. The great thing about this product is it can sit on the surface for a while and still be easy to remove, or you can wipe it off right away if you'd like.
Don't
overthink it Jeff.
If he just wants it "waxed" then you're all set. I could easily knock that out in 3 hours, assuming like you said the boat has already been washed and is ready to go.
Sounds like easy money to me. Go for it!
