For a couple of reasons. It sanded down fine, but because the boat sat for so long, the cracks got filled with dirt. So they are still visible. If I did it again I would work harder getting those cracks clean. It still does need some more sanding just to finish it up, but I am not that worried about it. Structurally it is solid. I wish there was a way to re-apply the gloss coat. that is my biggest problem with the repair job in general. <br /><br />POpaddlingOTAKUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215628711923335166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960739132230774024.post-9906416366409536102013-09-05T22:16:27.946-04:002013-09-05T22:16:27.946-04:00Great post PO, So how did the final repair look after your sanding and what did you use? Although not the same type of plastic, I have polished plexiglas with 1000 grit foam pads and then used rotary buffing pads with various levels of cut polish (all the way to fine) to completely remove scratches on the plexiglas. That might work in your case.<br /><br />MarkWhat's That Birdershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13827677994495825534noreply@blogger.com
