Newbie here on this forum:
Asking for recommendations on how to protect/buff/wax the white gelcoat.
I tried wax first; fail.
I then went to compound; fail.
It appears the gelcoat hasn't been treated, well since maybe ever. When I attempted to compound it, the hull literally sucked the compound up and I had to work like hell to get most of the color of the compound out. (luckily I had only done a small area)
Any and all recommendations would be great....
Thanks in advance
