so I spent about 5 hours "detailing" my boat. I went through 6 or seven
magic erasers and about a bottle and a half of vinyl sauce and one bottle of hot sauce. I took out all the cushions out and scrubed them with the magic eraser. I cleaned in between the trim of all the interior to get all that stuff that gets trapped in. I couldnt believe all the crap that gets between the cushion seats and the boat. Man, 17 bucks a foot from a detailer sounds like such a good deal next time. i didnt even do the trailer, wax the boat or shampoo the carpet.
I'm thinking about using some wax called "driven" has anyone here used it?
or has anyone used any of their boat products?

17 a foot that would be $460 for your 27 so far your in to $100.00 that leaves you plenty for gas and casino.

Tim at Dirty Deeds does my boat for $12/foot. He shows up when he says, on time and does a great job. He had two guys in my boat for 4:30 on Friday morning.
If you're in Parker, he'll come to you or come and get your boat for you. He even takes my boat to Havasu for service for me for free if I get a detail after they're done with service.
TIMS a HOMO:D think he's selling the sauce line here soon as well in Parker. He better, I bought him enough drinks last time at RoadRunner:D Dude can drink like a fish.

I have been using Driven for a few years now. Great stuff and he is a ***boat member that doesn't really come on this site anymore. I like all the driven products but am especially fond of the wash and the spray detail.
The BoatBling line is a bit more broader and obviously works well. If you had such great results with HotSauce and VinylSauce...why would you change? This coming from a Driven user. I haven't hopped on the BoatBling line yet because I really like the Driven products, but I am going to try the HotSauce for spot removal. I stumbled upon a vinegar formula for spot removal(by accident) that worked really well with very little effort on a years worth of Canyon Lake waterspots with one application. But, I do have to come back and detail the boat after removing the spots. I have found Driven's Spray Detail to be every bit as good as a hand wax, only with 1/100th the effort and can be done very quickly and lasts and does not streak easily. I also use it on windows.
