Re: What's the best way to clean oxidized red gel coat?
In a shady area, wash boat thoroughly,after drying, apply 3M Superduty compound,(best if you have a variable speed buffer w/ 6" buffing wheel),apply compound with buffer / remove w/ buffer...then use 3M Finesse-it Polish work small area at a time, after 1 pass with above method you should have a nice shiny gelcoat...if not repeat process....if it is all shiny...wax boat with Collinite Boat Wax 2 coats...Red is very difficult to maintain this will have to be done twice a year. Good Luck..and remember there is no EASY WAY to get it back to original without hard work.
