alright did it, I sanded the boat with a DA and 320 grit sand paper, next handwet sanded with 600, then 800, then 1500 .

Got a brand new high speed buffer and started with a 3M buffing compound that I use on cars. Then a fine cut boat rubbing compound, then a boat finisher wax and a bunch of muscle and sore arms for two days..the boat looks freaking awsome.:takephoto

It wouldn't do you any good. You can not get the resolution to show a lot of difference.

Oh sure you can see a difference if it's not shiny and then it is shiny, but thats about it.

A little hard work go,s along way. Sounds like it came out good. Keep a good coat of wax on it and it will stay that way. Big Mike
