Thanks Bill!

Hello, we just took possession of our long awaited, custom ordered cabriolet.

We've had the car a couple weeks and I've yet to touch the panels regarding hand washing. It's been several vehicles...

I'm close to finishing my bottle of Collinite 840 which is what I've mostly used on removing my water spots on the gel coat of our 2015 boat.

It's done a pretty decent job, although it does take a...

Regardless of the time needed to re apply the protection....Which of the products provide better protection?

The DG501 or the collinite tandem?

Thanks, here's more of the green color - http://www.cs2photography.com/3.jpg


FYI - the 476 is a great product and does indeed last a long time. The 476 may very well be the reason my...

The vinegar solution worked wonders!! I worked on the boat all weekend and am pleased with the results.

I did find some areas that I'd like to hit with a wool pad, but I only have the PC7424. ...

The vinegar is working nicely - any suggestions on how to apply this? I'm spraying about a 3' x 3' area and letting is stand for a bout 2 to 3 minutes then using a microfiber to wipe dry. I'm not...

Are the Kaboom and ZEP products gel coat safe? Do they need to be applied with caution. Since these are made for something other than automotive/marine use, I would assume there is no caution or...

We've kept our boat in storage this Summer and we brought it back this weekend, unfortunately I'm unable to remove my water spots with the products pictured.

The good thing about leaving the boat...

I was curious what a good microfiber cloth would be used for the application of liquid waxes/cleaners would be?

I've got a bunch of the super plush purple Cobras and they are absolutely wonderful...

Any thoughts on using my Collinite 840 prior to the DG501? Will this be a little over kill on the cleaning part and simply wasting product (the Collinite 840) since I'll be using a cleaner/polisher...

UPDATE - this was a VERY EXPENSIVE trip to the dealership. Good news!! The owner of the dealership did not like the scratches he saw and needed professional advise from a local 'glass' guy. The...

How do you determine if the gel coat is thick enough for me to try the wetsanding? Do I assume that since the boat is only 2 years old that the gel coat is thick enough or is there a device to...

Thanks for the help all!

Allenk4, what grit of sand paper do you recommend on the gel coat?

Again, thanks for the tips!

Do you know how to bring Mike's attention to the thread?

Thank you

These scratches have been here since day one of receiving the boat. I've tried to correct them on my own, but have had no luck with the tools I've mentioned (the DA, the meguiar's M105 and the...

I'm not having any luck removing the unfelt scratches in my gel coat. I'm using (aggressively) the 7424XP, an orange pad and Meguiar's 105 compound.

Does anyone else have a suggestion on what...

This particular Tundra is a single stage white paint. Their white Tundra's are the only single stage in their fleet.

Hey all, I've started applying the 840 and this stuff is not coming off with a hand towel. I'm applying a THIN coat with my DA on a medium speed with a blue applicator sponge pad. When I apply to a...
