Re: M_Boats: The Gelcoat Miracle
I can safely plug this product, because CLC does NOT sell it, nor have I any financial stake in it: 3M #9006 Marine Restorer and Wax _http://multimedia.mmm.com/mws/mediawebserver.dyn?UUUUUUC04ehUnx7UGx7UUUAjNeX... tttS_ (http://multimedia.mmm.com/mws/mediawebserver.dyn?UUUUUUC04ehUnx7UGx7UUUAjNeX...) - This is a moderately aggressive paste wax that is exceptionally easy to use but brings back a deep gloss quickly. Seems like the best of all worlds. One of the helpful attributes is that you don't have to wait for the wax to dry before you start buffing; slobber it on and buff it off as quickly as you put it on. Preferably with a powered buffing pad. (A 3M pad on a drill motor will be more than sufficient.) I have brought back to life the chalkiest gelcoats with this stuff. I've also passed it on to many friends who have reported instant success. 1970's chalky gelcoat to nearly-new gloss in a couple of hours. Cheers, John C. Harris
We use AquaBuff 2000. Over the years while visiting several fiberglass repair amd gelcoat shops they all used Aqua Buff 2000. http://www.duratec1.com/dp17-18.html We buy it in 5 gallon pails. We mix it with Saftey Klean Yellow paste wax on a Milwaulkee power buffer. It really makes a difference what pad and machine is used. Results are excellent. Bob JazzYachts@aol.com wrote:

I can honestly vote for that, especially when I got a boat that had been let go for years. It works wonders. Our old stink potter also looks like new thanks to that Fiberglas restorer. WM also sells an equivalent ;-) Fair Winds, Gordon ----- Original Message ----- From: <JazzYachts@aol.com> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 25, 2005 6:10 PM Subject: Re: M_Boats: The Gelcoat Miracle
