Complete detail and color sanding.

[Tahoe540]

For a winter project I decided I would blow my boat apart and color sand the whole thing. I did get to buy some new tools and products.

I had to start with 600 due to the bad oxidation on the top.

I am now using 800 then move to 1000/1200 and finally 2000/3000 depending on location

I am done with one side.

The products I am using for polishing are 3M super duty compound, 3M medium duty and 3M finesse it final polish. I have not decided on a wax yet.

Looks Good! I am doing the same thing with my Spectra 20 right now. It has never been Polished and is ALL original. Using 3M Rubbing Compound (05954) then 3M heavy (36102) then going to Meguiars 105 then 205, finally Meguiars Marine Wax. Just starting the project. Mark from Needles, Ca

Most useful thing I bought was a 3" pad. The 5" as just to big except on the big flat spots
