    Default Fading on 92 Mariah

    The starbord side of my 92 Mariah has faded pretty bad. We had it wet sanded a few years back and that helped quite a bit, but it quickly faded back in 2 years. Does anyone have any ideas for restoring the finish, or is redoing the gelcoat the only answer.
    Thanks,

    Default Gelcoat

    Unfortunately, Sanding and Buffing are usually the best help. If it continues to fade on one side, check and make sure you are not storing it in an area where that side always gets hit by the sun...ie docks, yard etc...Might help with longer life if you can change that up. Also Anthony at our factory(800 3202779) might have an idea or two as well. Good Luck.
