basic bass boat gelcoat maintenance

[danEz_yoda]

I just got a bass boat. :spot



It was used but the previous owner took very good care of it. There are only a few dock rubs but nothing major.



What products would be recommended to keep the boat looking good. The original owner kept it in a garage. I won't be able to do that with this one so it will be kept outside under a cover.





I'm a Kalsse Twin user and have a PC with some orange pads. I'm thinking just AIO on an organge pad to do some cleaning thenfollow that with SG to seal it.



What about the tires and interior seats. I'm looking for something that will resist mold/mildew formation on the seats and hold off dryrot on the tires as long as possible.





Any other ideas?





Thanks

Keep it covered.



AIO has little cut, might work if the boat is in great condition. SG would work to seal, but might be a pain if the gel-coat soaks it up. Opti-Seal is ultra fast to apply if the gel-coat is in good condition. Apply often.



303 works well on vinyl and tires, but keep dry and out of the sun.
