Thanks to everyone else for the responses.

oh sorry I'm a grown up and don't use emoji's. I guess my question was what to use not what you wouldn't do. But thanks for replying.

Thanks will try that.

Also tried clay with a Griot's fine clay mitt

I am trying to remove dried on tree sap from roof and hood on Toyota Highlander. There are 15 spots. Have tried Tar X, Goo Gone for tree sap, Bug and tar remover, WD40, 70% Isopropyl alcohol, Brake Kleen. Have polished with Rupes blue wool pad and Course compound. Nothing is removing the sap...

Thanks for the response. I have polished fuel tanks before as well with the big Makita grinder and cloth wheels. Not much fun at all. Was hoping there was an easier process. Glad its not my boat

I would use the Eraser after polishing to ensure all oils are removed 4 criss-cross passes would be sufficient. I would think if you kept going until it feels dry it has already flashed and removing high spots will be difficult. Reload is for both applications within 1 hour of applying coating...

I have a guy looking to polish his 14' aluminum boat and I was wondering what products and tools you suggest for best results. The boat is in good shape but has not been polished in 10+ years.

Thanks for the info. I quoted $1000 but I thought $1200 was more in line. Good point on the black paint as well. I have not done black as of yet.

No problem, I know it was your anniversary. I have been speaking with Andre at Marine 31 as well. FYI I used the new Rupes blue course pad and personally I am happy with the results. I do have the Buff and Shine Uro-Tec like you mentioned coming just to compare. Thanks again for the info I have...

Thanks for the info, I am waiting on an interface pad to try cause at speed 6 it with stall out unless you are on completely flat surface and applying zero pressure to DA. I would assume to apply the ceramic coating in the sunshine one would just work in smaller sections as you cannot always...

Using it on gel coat to remove oxidization. Waiting on an inter face pad to try on the DA, maybe that will help with rotation

Hi Mike I have been following your gelcoat polishing videos and I have a question about using a rotary for wet sanding. I have a Griot G8 and it doesn't have enough torque to keep rotating 3" Mirka pad for the smaller areas on the top cap. Also have the Griot GR3 rotary, any issues with using it...
