Thanks. I have an ablative/soft antifouling paint on the bottom, below the waterline. No blasting it off as it isn't necessary with this type of paint, it will be sanded and repainted. I am compounding/polishing/waxing above the water line only. I do have some purple foamed pads and will probably start with them and the Captains One Step Compound/Polish. Could use the CSS orange pads I have as well if that is better. Will test and see. I think I have decided to do that and then follow with the one step polish and wax using a green pad on the 3401. In my mind this would compound and polish deeper and then the green would take out the swirls left by the deeper process? Not sure if that is a whacked out theory but it's what I am thinking. May be entirely wrong. Then a coat of wax on top of that. Will take three trips around but I don't do this often so it is what it is.
