On a serious note..Try to arrange the sand blasting or painting on Saturday. Alternatively park outside on the common roads if you do know the timings. Generally sandblasting and painting won't take longer than one work day.

Not really rare. When economic are back more time will be devoted to construct new hull.

 

Some major shipyard do carry sandblasting/painting regularly.

No use at all.

Sandblasting/painting still alright. The worst are those cement mixer companies.

I have benefitted from this car forum with many good advices from bros here.

 

So I would like to share my knowledge here.

Background : I work in a Shipyard for last 40 years and own/drive many new cars. Am an enthusiastic on car grooming, waxing sealand, polish, clay etc 

1) No DIY polish nor clay nor any product in current market can remove those blasting and marine paint once its sits onto your car for several hours under hot sun per se.

The blasting (grit blasting mostly) and coating are hard to remove once it get onto your car surface especially under hot sun. Your car surface becomes very rough like sandpaper.  During the painting (coating) is more damaging to your car surface than blasting itself. Not going into too technical here.

You can try those products that make "big claim" and but it’s not going to work.

Recommendation:

1) Always cover up their cars when they parked inside shipyard. 

2) Claying is better than polishing to remove those grit that stick onto your car, but not paint. As polishing remove the Clear coat and it can’t remove those white spot (coating) from your car.

But you have do clay immediately with running water/soapy and NOT park at shipyard few days than clay at weekend, Its not going to work. At times, I lazy to cover my car as I going to park few hours (under 2 hours) , then I clay the same evening when I get home. It works to remove the blasting NOT coating.

3) You can try “hard” polishing but its going to remove more clear coat and after few hard polishing your original paint is “gone”.   

   

4) When you decide to go for polishing, some company will charge you add say $50 to $100 to get rid of the blasting/coating. 

BTW, during the blasting/coating of a ship, it  takes a few days.  

I am sure many Grooming Product Sellers, Car grooming company etc will disagreed with my comments  above but I would leave it as it and will not engaged them for obvious reasons.

 

Above just my two cents worth… 

Thanks for reading.
