[QUOTE="TurboM700, post: 664633, member: 59"] Thought I would do a quick right up on polishing my pontoons toons. My boat is a 89 Bass Buggy that I complete restored last yr. ([url]http://forums.iboats.com/completed-boat-projects/pontoon-conversion-inboard-outboard-573089.html[/url]) I first started with getting the boat off the trailer [ATTACH=full]109144[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]109145[/ATTACH] Then I used some JJV’s pontoon cleaner. This stuff works awesome even on my old boat it took all the scale off and brought them to a nice dull finish. I went over each toon twice and I used a little less then a gallon. Well worth the 30 bucks. [ATTACH=full]109146[/ATTACH] After it dried I sanded the entire toon (everything I wanted to polish) with some 400 grit sand paper on a random orbital sander. Next was onto the fun and dirty part. This will back your arm feel like jello and cover you head to toe with black dust. I wore Ear, Eye, and respirator for the first half and will be switching to a full face shield for the 2nd half. I purchased all my polishing products from here. I had the 6” grinder that I use on metal so I didn’t need that. [url]http://www.buschshineproducts.com/aluminum-compound-kitshand-held-buffer-p-137.html[/url] Started with the Yellow pad and the Brown Bar, working from bottom to the top of the boat. Stopping every 16” to clean the pad and apply more compound. Very important to clean the pad every so often as it will get aluminum build up on it and actually scratch the toons. Next was onto the Off white pad and white bar. This brought it upto where you see it now. I did all this in about 2hrs (sanding and the 2 polishing) Next step will be a final polish then a quick hand polish. All said and done I should have 10hrs into both toons front and back and the sides.
