6 hours to apply 2 coats of IGL marine ceramic, I still have probably 4 more hours to finish top deck and interior gelcoat. Temps were around 60f, so time to flash was long today, slowed me down a bit.
I will also put a couple coats of ceramic on trailer and wheels.
Total will be appx. 24 hours. Yes that is significant labor, but you can understand now why detailers charge $2500-$3000.
I will get those 24 hours back over the next 3-4 years as upkeep is reduced compared to other waxes and sealants.
