That looks like a lot of work . I am not sure how badly oxidized your boat was . Wet sanding will clean up the gelcoat . It will also remove the original gel from the exterior opening it up I am sure . I have never had to wet sand any boat yet that was badly oxidized with the Aqua buff . I usually work in 6 ft sections and as soon as I have buffed the boat j apply the wax by hand . I move over and buff the next section and then wax. I'll move to a third section and wax . Then I'll go back with my buffer and a wool pad used just for wax and remove the dry wax and polish it at the same time . It has been a learning experience for me . But I would not do any thing else any more . I have converted more boaters than I could tell you about to this method . I am not knocking the poly glow . But I feel my end product is just as good .
