Hey Ted,

My Oxidation Remover works great. I typically run my buffer up to 3k with no problems at all. It all depends on how bad the oxidation is on the boat. I would recommend a foam or wool pad and my oxidation remover. Work a small area and see how it works for you. If the oxidation is real bad then you might have to wetsand, but we can walk you through that as well.

Ted,

I'm at Lake Ouachita in Arkansas. You can purchase any of my products by contacting one of my distributors in my sig line below. It sounds like he may not of used a heavier grit. You can pick up 1000-1200 at almost any auto parts store. You might just need to follow up with 1200 then buff. Let me know.
