What product works best on getting rid of the chalkiness of the gel coat?



Thanks
I will try and answer 1 part of your question I am sure others will chime in.

Chalkiness can be attacked various ways, but it is in older boats (yours) usually a multi step process.

Go to your local boat store (usually West Marine). 3-M makes a product for heavily chalked boats (rubbing compound) work that in real good by machine. Then get there polishing compound and repeat. If you like the results then buy there wax and repeat.

It is a very hard and labor intensive job. Take a little at a time and see if you like the end result.

I thought that boat was repainted? If so go easy on the rubbing compound
