We also are getting ready to re-letter the transom on our new to us Catalina 27. We can still see the previous names (2) still ghosting in the gelcoat.
I have a borrowed buffer, a half gallon of Finesse it, 3M 600-2000 grit and a bottle of "Insulator Wax"
Also the boat is in the water. We only 'need' to do the transom before new lettering.
I think it should be okay, 1984 boat, doubt it was ever properly cleaned and waxed in the last 15+ years.
Thoughts on the "Insulator Wax"? We have been using with WONDERFUL success on the airplanes.
