Picked up a YETI 45 and also an Aqua Marine Deck YETI pad to go along with it in matching color combo to our new flooring. Made a quick video of the installation steps incase anyone else is thinking about adding a pad to their YETI cooler:

Got a little time this afternoon to work on the Aqua Marine Deck again. Not done yet but made some progress. Will post a full video once it's all done.

Started last weekend working on my buff, polish, and seal process. This is the before/after using a high speed buffer and 1000 compound. Next will be 2500 compound. Then decontamination, and finally sealer. Hoping to have more time to work on it next weekend.

Looks good already has a mirror finish.
I love to buff old paint. It has a very fast "reward", but the cleanup always is a kicker.

Yes it is. And it takes a day or two for my eyes to quit watering. 😢

HERE IS PART 2 :)

Got the Aqua Marine Deck installation complete. Per request, I made sure to show more details in part2 of the installation video of the actual steps involved in sticking the matts down instead of just explaining. Here is the video for Part2. Hope it is helpful for anyone looking to do their own Aqua Marine Deck, Seadek, MarineMat, or Gatorstep installation.

Let me know if you have any questions...
