Can anyone provide me with some info on this stuff?
Over on MOL people are having really good success with #49 Oxidation Remover, but It looks like this is a step up in aggressiveness.

I`m also trying to decide between these two for some gelcoat work. Did you buy any and try?
i have never really liked the 67....it doesnt seem to have the same oils in it that feed and lubricate the gel while your using it.....i say go #49 and have at it.....if 49 cant make it shine it needs wetsanding in my opinion.....
What gritt sanding scratches is 49 designed to take out?
For some really rough areas I`ve wetsanded with 220, 400, 600, 1000, then tried 49 on my 3401 with a wool pad (and orange pad) and it really didn`t do anything.
So I wetsanded with 2000 then wool (or orange) and SIP and the surface was perfect.
BTW, when wetsanding gelcoat, should you have a light touch on your sanding block, or do you need to use a bit (not a lot) of pressure?
I`ve found that at the higher grits, if I use a light touch I don`t seem to remove previous sanding scratches entirely - need use a bit of pressure (unlike on cleracoat where I always use a gentle touch)
BTW, maybe it`s just me, or when you watch/read about gelcoat repair are most people crazy - they stop wetsanding at 600, then say to use a rubbing compound by hand and remove all the 600 marks. Umm...........
