    Thanks for all the Videos! Question, What Prep Product do you recommend for a Factory Direct Boat before applying Kracken? Triple P? or Something else? I know I need to remove the Mold Release Waxes and Final Prep Material that was put on Boat before it ships. THANKS AGAIN!

      Wash your boat with dawn dish soap because it’s a degreaser and will strip wax. Then give the gelcoat a wipe down with isopropyl alcohol to remove any contamination. Apply Triple P prep polish with a foam pad and then you can coat with the ceramic!

    So to know im ready to move from sanding to compound-polish i have to see a good and clear reflection on surface of the boat?

      Not exactly. After you sand, there should be a very consistent light haze across the entire boat. It won’t be a clear and reflective until after you take a buffer to it.

      @@iliasstavrou1157 400-500 rpms which is usually a 4 or 5 speed on a da polisher

    Thanks for all the videos. Your views probably went up 5% just from me in the last month haha before wet sanding, do i need to use a hull cleaner to remove a light waterline stain? Can i just start with a 500 grit wet sand? Thanks again!

      Thanks for your support! A water stain can be sanded out with 500 or even 1000 grit sandpaper. You won’t have to use hull cleaner unless you want to but it’s not necessary
