Default Polishing fibreglass gel coat

The brown 3M compound is great for highly oxidized surfaces. If you
really want a mirror finish, follow up by polishing with 3M's
Finesse-it polishing compound (white). I use Collinite's Fleetwax
paste, a hard paste wax that always comes out on top when Powerboat
Reports tests all the waxes.

Don't get those compounds at your boat store... you can get them for
probably half at local auto supply places, or he

We use 3M's Super Duty Compound with a high speed buffer. Then we
apply Mcguires Flag ship wax with a orbital buffer. It works very well.
