Wet Sanding

[csuggs]

OK - I kinow that somewhere here there's a post about getting rid of the dreaded "haze" on the hull. What kind of wet sandpaper does anyone suggest using to get rid of the haze without removing too much gel coat?

I used 1500 followed by 2000, then polish&wax.

i used a wet 600 followed by rubbing compound then finesse it then wax. worked well for me.

I used 400 and 600 grit wet sand paper then followed by 3M super cut and then finishing. Look at my pics on my page. I had really bad oxidation and it came out great!

The small section I did, I followed the 3M plan, wetsand with 3M 800 to 1500, rubbing compound, finesse it and wax.....looks great only it's not the whole boat!!!!!

THanks guys - sounds like you're all pretty much on the same page. Did you use a sanding block and do it by hand?

[USMCloeper]

i used a sanding block which is doing it by hand i did not use any power tools to sand just alot of elbow grease

[Blackntan90]

Yeah, a handblock and lots of clean water!
