High-Performance Sanding Aid for Gel Coat Surface Prep

Starke Quik Sand is a next-generation sanding aid engineered for precision leveling and oxidation removal on gel coat and mold/tooling gel coat surfaces. Formulated for professional marine detailers and OEM applications including Mold & Tooling gelcoat, Quik Sand is the fastest way to remove P400 grit sanding scratches while finishing like a P800–P1000 pass—drastically reducing the number of steps in your surface correction process.

Perfect for prepping oxidized or uneven gel coat before polishing, Quik Sand cuts fast, stays cool, and creates minimal dust—delivering a consistent, clean finish every time.

⭐ Why Marine Pros Choose Quik Sand

• Removes P400 Grit Scratches & Oxidation: Cuts like a compound with the efficiency of a sanding step—ideal for oxidized, sun-damaged, or uneven gel coat.

• Finishes Like P800–P1000: Delivers a smoother surface than traditional abrasives, minimizing follow-up polishing time.

• Gel Coat Only Formula: Purpose-built for gel coat and mold/tooling gel coat—not for clear coat or automotive paint.

• Dust-Free, Low-Heat Application: Cuts clean without clogging pads or heating the surface, making for a safer, faster workflow.

• Extends Abrasive Life: Reduces loading on sanding discs and buffing pads, increasing your productivity and saving costs over time.

✅ Perfect For:

• Boat hulls and topsides with oxidation or sanding haze

• Leveling compound-sanded surfaces before polish

• Pre-polish surface prep for gel coat refinishing

• OEM boat builders and professional marine detailers

💬 What Pros Are Saying

"I’ve been specializing in only marine detailing with over 10 years of experience. Dealing with Florida's elements is a battle itself, and Starke Yacht care changed the marine industry. Just when I thought there couldn’t be any better products, they now released a new product called Quik Sand. For something I used to wet sand by hand, this is a replacement for sanding and the finish is incredible. I’ve personally used this product to cut out factory orange peel & deep DA scratch imperfections from factory.  Thank you, guys, for changing the technology in the marine detailing industry.
