Restoring the GelCoat-gctid820404

[The_Mrs]

Hello everyone, My husband and I recently purchased our first Bayliner. We have a 20.5' Capri which is in very good shape, however the Blue Gelcoat is showing a whitish haze when dry and when wet looks much better. We are hoping you can suggest a product (s) we can use to restore the shine and hep protect it from fading anymore.

While cleaning it I also saw there are some "spider cracks " on the upper dash, is there something you know of that will help it from getting worse? The one other thing I noticed is there is 1 or 2 MINOR pinholes in the seats, is there a repair kit you would recommend for that ?

Sorry for all the questions, we just really would like to keep our new "baby" in the best shape possible

Follow these instructions and dont skimp on the buffer. The only thing I did different was I used 3M's two in one marine compound and finishing material. It's not cheap but it saves time and does a great job.

Follow this guys instructions and I guarantee you will have great results. The only thing I did different is I used 3M's rubbing and polishing compound which is a two in one product.
