    After years of trial and error I still resort back to 3M products.



    1) 3M 1000 grit wet/dry

    2) 3M heavy duty compound

    3) 3M 1200 grit wet/dry

    4) 3M Perfct It Rubbing compound (1)

    5) 3M Finesse It II polish

    6) Turtle Wax Ice (don`t hate it-works great in some uses)

    7) P21S Carnauba wax



    I use only a rotary buffer with lots or experience. I`ve been told that I just have that touch/feel for using one.

    I only wet sanded/buffed the top deck,wax the entire boat, and vacuumed. Just washed the trailer as it was in bad shape.

    It took me about 7 hours.

    well rotary is the only way to go when working on gel coats. I would never even think to attempt doing a boat with a PC or something like that.



    So you had to wet sand . . . . . the boat came out great. Smooth work.
