Still, *Did you use the Oxidation remover from Vertglas?

I am thinking....get a shine on it for now and then perhaps a more detailed job in the fall.

Thanks Guys!

Sorry for not responding quicker. I used the oxidation remover but I think using soft scrub and giving it good scrub down would do just as good. The main thing is to get the boat very clean as you will seal in anything left on the glass. The stuff works and I would buy the big bottle the 10inch, 4inch brush. Then go to the hard wear store and get one of those long plastic containers for holding drywall compound. You scrub down the boat then wash it down real good getting any left over gritt from the soft scrub off. Pore the stuff in the container and start with the hule using the 10" brush and use the 4" for tight spots. On their site they give good tips so read them first. The main thing is it will take around 6 coats but they go real quick with that wide brush. Do not put it on thick and watch for any runs as you can see them.
