I have a 2012 Monterey, white hull with Red band ...(hopefully pic has loaded) ...
I keep my boat in pristine condition, and find I have 2 small issues in the 'Red accent band' that I'd like to resolve, I think caused by my SkySki.
These are small issues ... only I know they are there, but I would like to fix.
The first is a scuff mark about an 1" long ... this does not show white 'through' so maybe I can polish out ? I have various grades of auto restore polish, which I have used when I attended to a scratch in hull with 'patch repair paste'
The 2nd is a pair of parallel wavy scratches, and small horizontal scuff... the scuff will be dealt with by whatever is advised on above scuff, the 2 wavy lines these are about 1" long ... and not deep, but deep enough that they show as 2 white way lines.
A 'thought' ... for a car, you can get scratch remover creams, you rub on and they hide the scratch ... do these work on gelcoat ? ... I do have some, but don't want to risk making even more white show through.
I do not have any Red patch repair, and you can't get it in UK (cost me $75 shipping to get white patch paste)
Pictures attached (close ups .. scratches are small)
