Need Help! I just found out that the guy who painted the bottom of my boat used Micron CSC on the bottom of my boat not Awgrip. I am not extremely happy with the finish! Can anything be done to make this finish smoother? Should I wet sand then polish?

That is full blown bottom paint......not sure what to use but that stuff isn't meant to come off easy AT ALL.

If it is anti fouling paint you can smooth it out with brass wool. Gonna take some time. I did this on my CC and gained back about 2mph that we lost from the bottom paint.

By U Boy, Thanks For The Information, Is There Anything Else Special That I Should Do?

No nothing special except some bengay for your arm when your done. I was told this trick by a old blow boat racer and was very surprised when it worked.

Thank you Man!!!!!

Are you meaning your bottom was to be painted with the Awlgrip bottom paint system, Awlstar? If you are, I wouldn't worry about the difference. Micron CSC is Interlux's top of the line Bottom paint. It is a multi season paint. Powerwash the bottom at the end of the season, and relaunch it next seasom. I have been using it for a few years.
I had one of my guys at my shop do it with a roller, and I followed right behind him with a China bristle brush. The finish came out great for bottom paint. I'm sure if your paint is thick enough, you can sand it with a DA and some fine paper. I don't think you can polish it though.
