Fred Abrasions on Awlgrip can be a problem. If you look on their website there's information of repairing damage to the surface, but it is a huge undertaking. I had a modicum of success with dock abrasions by using a kit from the auto parts store I had laying around that was for polishing headlights that have become hazy. Since the abrasion did not get through the clear surface coat, I thought I was worth a try.
I skipped the coarser disks and took it easy. Slowly worked up to the finest abrasives, 2000 paper. Polishing compound to finish it off. Then a few coats of Awlcare. Almost disappeared...at least to everyone but me. I think this was what I used... https://www.amazon.com/advanced-39008-Headlight-Restoration-System/dp/B074MHQ3P9/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1505000712&sr=8-1&keywords=3M+Auto+Advanced+Headlight+Restoration+System Tom Buscaglia S/V Alera 1990 C&C 37+/40 Vashon WA P 206.463.9200 C 305.409.3660 > On Sep 9, 2017, at 2:54 PM, [email protected] wrote: > > Message: 7 > Date: Sat, 9 Sep 2017 14:53:45 -0700 > From: Fred Hazzard <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Stus-List Question about awlgrip hull paint > Message-ID: > <CAN6MigY1PYgYL3b=yh1oc7rbpsz1xg0xq0en+38uk7fxbrq...@mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > My Awlgrip 14 yrs old and looks good except for some light dock rash.
