Sure, and sorry if this is a dumb question, what kind of pointers do ya need???

How is the current condition of the gel/paint??

Does it need any compounding, or just polishing?

Do you want a good machine (safe) to use or do you just want to do it by hand ( I hate that)

I will help anyway I can for ya! You can also go to www.wizardsproducts.com They have great info there and you can order from them.

if your boat is already in good shape, the I HIGHLY recommend the Supreme Seal.

Why don't you try this...read their info and familiarize your self a bit, then ask away!!! If need be, I can/will shoot ya my number and we can talk too!!

I use a orbital polisher I have never sealed it and I was wondering when to apply a sealer? I am hoping this helps to keep the shine through summer?

Thanks for the help!

Good, you have an orbital...what kind of pads do you have?

This is where I lecture people the most...DO NOT listen to those once a year gimmics for polishes...even if your boat is stored indoors, I suggest at least once in the Sprin, mid-summer, and at the end of the season, but that is a minimum that I suggest. Since you have an orbital, you know, it is not that big of a job, and it actually takes longer to properly wash/dry the boat then to polish it.

With Wizards, since they are a protective polish and NO wax is contained(good thing) you can put on mulitple coats for an even deeper gloss.

I will post a few pics tonight for you to show you what can be achieved.

Bill, are the terry cloth pads on an orbital ok, or is there something else to use?

I can only recommend foam for orbitals. For an example to see what type of orbital I use for my business goto...

www.autogeek.net/portercable7424

I am not recommending that site, I have never delt with them, just using it to show you guys an expample of one of my tools and some of the pads...
