Dirty and oxidized?
Ron:What you need to do is get the old chaulky finish cleaned before anything is going to make it look better.The cheapest way to go is to start with the Island Girl system. You need to clean the basic dirty and grime off the boat with good old soap and water. Then you can start with the IG Pink and the synthetic wool. This should get you down to smooth gel coat. Try this step and see how is goes. If it is really shot, you may want to paint it. That is the last resort in my opinion.Once you decide if the cleaned gelcoat looks good or not, you can continue using the rest of the IG System.
