Do I have this right? Compounding/Polishing/Waxing oxidized gelcoat
I am helping my FIL detail a boat so we can get it sold. It is oxidized but not in horrible shape. On a scale of 1-10 where 1 is awful gelcoat that seems almost brittle and 10 is new, I would put it as a 6. Here is my game plan:
Using this HF polisher:
Sander/Polisher - 7 Speed Electric Sander & Polisher
With this wool pad (note, not as aggressive as their 05704 pad):

And this compound :
3M 05954 Super Duty Compound - 1 Quart : Amazon.com : Automotive
I will go over the entire boat where it needs it, inside and out.
Then, with the same polisher and pad (use the other, clean side), I will go over it with 3M Finesse it II.
Afterwards,
Using a Porter Cable 97466 Random Orbit/DA sander and this pad:
Meguiar's 6.5-Inch Soft Buff Foam Finishing Pad : Amazon.com : Automotive
I will apply this wax

and then call it a day. Any suggestions?
