Hello Fellow Meguiars Enthusiasts!
I have a late 2008 build Eliminator 250 step V. Overall the boat is in great shape and I was the original purchaser. Ever since I purchased the boat I have used only Meguiars products. My problem is I have swirls in the colored portion of the gel coat (meaning all the stripes and designs) and the plain white gel coat finish has hazing. The following is my current methods:
1) Wash and clean boat with Meguiars boat wash and water sport remover fully clean the boat, etc.
2) Makita Rotary Yellow Polishing Pad and #44 Color Restorer.
3) Cyclo Polisher with foam polishing pads and #45 Polish
4) Cyclo fine foam pads and Flagship Marine wax or #56 Pure Wax
I have also tried this one step method:
1) Rotary Wax with yellow Polishing pad and #50 Cleaner Wax.
I have a PC DA polisher, similar to the meguiars one, but I have not used it because the pads always fly off?
The pictures are close ups of the center section of the Cuddy of the boat in the middle section.
The first purple gel coat is before I did any polishing the second dark picture is after I polished it as mentioned above.
The white picture is after the above 4 steps but the finish became dull and hazy. I do not like that look.
Thank you for the help!
