Tom Sawyer… Finish superb!
Let’s get this out of the way first… Tom is not an inexpensive boat refinisher!
If you have a boat that’s got a few years on it and needs it’s fiberglass brought back to a new look… Tom is your man.
In a previous life in the Bahamas, where he was born, Tom owned and operated a dental lab. So why would a fellow who owned a dental lab be polishing boats? His answer was, politics in the Bahamas and out-sourcing. Makes sense.
Tom applies his knowledge of polishing teeth to your boat and the results are stunning. He’s always very professional and he takes his time. At the end of every work day he’ll wash your boat and clean up after himself. You step back on the boat and you can’t tell he’s been there. Can’t say that about any of the others we used around here. Usually polish and rags are strewn around and dust from the buffers is everywhere. Not so with Tom.
Watching Tom do a friends boat… and he didn’t know I was watching… He’s a perfectionist. If the sun hits the finish from the wrong direction… he stops and works another area that he can see. I’ve seen him stare at a portion of boat for 15 minutes before going back to redo it.
He takes his time and does it right.
