Rubbing strake replacement (mobile)

I’m looking for someone to come out and remove old and replace - does anyone know of a company / person that does this? It’s really letting the overall look of the bot down

Rib located in Essex

It’s a bit of a lump to trailer about - any ideas welcome

I'm part way cleaning mine with Sea Glow, seems to be going ok so far and an alternative to removing and replacing. I'll post pictures when complete.

The sun had made mine very yellow and crazed. The Sea Glow has lifted most of this, although in parts they still.look a little yellow and in other parts blueish (they are great originally). For the cost and time it will take to complete I am hapoy.

I'm not sure how to post photos on Tapatalk to show?

Thanks
Richard
