Cabin Top and Cockpit Polishing

Picture
The cabin top and cockpit on our 1997 Caliber look like they had never been polished since the boat was new.  They were fairly chalky.  This week I have been tackling that job using my Makita 9227 buffer, a 3M white wool polishing pad and some Presta gelcoat compound,  It took about 2 whole days to polish the cabin top and cockpit and another day to wax with collinite liquid wax.

These are the after shots.
