I just finished the waxing of the 1999 260 I bought at the end of the season last year...and it has been a long winter.

I don't have too many pics, but here are a few.

At purchase:

After waxing:

I think it came out great! She is all ready to go now, only a week until I splash her :grin:

Looks great, did you do it by hand or with a machine? How long did it take?

Thanks! I did a little of both. I used a Porter Cable that I purchased over the winter to do below the rub rail! I used a little of elbow grease in spots above the rub rail.

It look me about 6/7 hours, with many breaks for the arms!!

Looks great. Wish I could do this to 100% of my boat but it is already in the water...

MEGUIAR’S FLAGSHIP PREMIUM MARINE WAX was my last step. Check out their website, they have some good products and you might be able to get them from Jim this site at BOE.

Do a few searches here and you will see a ton of opinions on what to use.

Good luck!

Thanks! That will give you something to do next season as if there isn't enough to do in the off season! :lol:

You should add your information to your signature so we all know what boat you have!

Have fun with your boat!
