xv. EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE
The exterior of a yacht should be maintained with great pride for it
displays the value you place in it. With regular attention and proper
use, the outside appearance of your yacht will remain like new.
FIBERGLASS
Fiberglass is one of the most maintenance-free materials utilized today
in boat construction. If given proper care and treatment, the gelcoat
surface will look new for many years. If not maintained, it will
eventually turn to a dull, chalky textured appearance.
We recommend that you wash the exterior fiberglass surfaces of your boat
several times each season with a mild soap and plenty of warm fresh
water then rinse liberally with fresh water. After the boat has dried,
use a good quality fiberglass cleaner in paste form; follow this process
with a wax or polish prepared for marine use. A fiberglass cleaner with
a very gentle abrasive in it may help remove minor scratches and surface
wear. Be careful, as the continued use of cleaners containing abrasives
will gradually erode the gelcoat surface. Marine wax will fill small
scratches and provide a glossy finish. We suggest you use a wax that
does not contain silicone as it gets into the gelcoat and is almost
impossible to remove should you want to paint the boat at a later date.
Stubborn stains may be removed with fiberglass cleaner in some
instances. More difficult stains may be worked out with judicious use
of a very mild abrasive powder cleaner. Stubborn tar and petroleum
stains may be removed with careful application of acetone solvent.
(Acetone is a powerful but EXTREMELY flammable solvent which is
available in most paint and hardware stores.)
Stress or "spider cracks" are a common occurrence on the fiberglass
boats of even the most careful boat builders and boat owners. Most of
the time, these cracks are limited to the gelcoat surface and are of
cosmetic considerations only, not structural. If you have any doubt
about the seriousness of any crack, consult your dealer. Cosmetic
repair of gelcoated surfaces is not a difficult task and a reasonably
handy person with a little practice and study can make adequate repairs.
Structural fiberglass repairs should be left to experts.
If for any reason you desire to apply paint to areas of the boat other
than to the bottom or boot-top, seek the advice of qualified personnel
at a boat yard in your area for information about the latest development
in chemically-based paints for fiberglass, and the recommended surface
preparation procedure.
Minor repairs of the gelcoat surfaces may be done by the owner using one
of the following methods:
SURFACE IMPERFECTIONS:
On imperfections that do not penetrate the
gelcoat, you may sand them out with #320 wet and dry sandpaper. Finish
with 400 and 600 grit paper and hand buff with a fine rubbing compound.
