Mine is not that bad just has lost it shine, it is a 1989 v20 sport.
I have a HF 7'' polisher so I though to give that a try but not sure what the best suff to use with it. Has any one use a product called "shine on" they say you won't need to buff if this product is used. |

Not sure what product "Shine on" is but any product where you supposedly wipe on and wipe off aint gonna do it....

Please use this product, buy good variable speed buffing machine from Harbor Freight
Use the 1000 grit first and follow with the 2000 you can expect to see results beyond your expectations. During my restoration I was determined not to wet sand the Gel coat, I did not here is what the results were, it remove the orange peel and came out excellent. I personally did a lot of reading and found this product I will recommend no other. Here is the web site http://www.aqua-buff.com/ Here is a before and after shot using this product ... |

Another question is the floor is grey in my sport 20 would that be paint or gel coat? I have some patching to do so I didn't know if it would be better to just paint after my repair work.

The floor of my 86 cuddy is grey gelcoat.....when I redid my gas tank hatch I wanted to wet sand a few old holes that I had filled from some cooler brackets that had been screwed down....if yours is like mine the problem was the wet sanding took down the non skid on the floor which stood out alot....you may have to paint it if you want to keep the non skid texture.
