Hello Bernie

 

I use NUFINISH myself and provided you clean the area properly with a product 
called PREPSOL there 

is no problem at all with later Gelcoat or PU applications.

The cleaning needs to be very thorough and should be done repeatedly using 
clean rags all the time.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Kind regards

 

Bernard

Subject: [Aus-soaring] Silicon free polishes?

 

Hello folks,

it's Form 2 time and we plan to give our LS1-f a bit of a buff and polish. A 
product called NuFinish was recommended, however a quick Google search finds 
that it contains silicon and I understand that this is not a good thing should 
any future repairs be required. Is this correct, or is silicon getting a bad 
rap? 

 

Our club has used a Meguiars marine product called M4516 High Gloss Polish, I 
am led to believe that this contains no silicon but have yet to confirm that.

See 
http://www.meguiars.com.au/productdetail_2006.php?seq=9&category=SPECIALTY&subcat=Marine%20Care&subsubcat=Polish%20and%20Protect&show=3

 

Can anyone speak with authority on this subject? Any other products that I 
should know about? The gel coat is in good condition, it was machine buffed 
last year and shows little if any oxidisation to my untrained eye. I imagine a 
quick polish followed by a wax would be sufficient, so the Meguiars marine 
products are looking good:

Thanks, Bernie.
