wet sanding hull
Can anyone advise the initial and final grit to use wet-sanding a hull? I just removed an ugly painted on boot stripe using paint stripper and want to even out the gelcoat on my 23 savage. Compounding was not aggressive enough.

Re: wet sanding hull
If you have serious oxidation on the gel coat I would start with 600 if not start with 800 then to 1200 then up from there to 1500 before you start waxing.

Re: wet sanding hull
If you use Poly Glow instead of wax, you can finish with the 800 grit.

Just buff it with tigercut. Then work your way down the line.

I have a Harbor Freight air powered orbital wet sander that makes the process VERY easy.
