This summer when I took the boat out some of the paint on the lowers flaked off. When I started chipping away at it I found out that part of it was actually something like bondo. The bondo was covering the whole front of the crescent. I wanted to take the rest of the bondo off and polish the lowers, but when I started chipping away at it I found out that the aluminum filler piece on the top of the crescent (see picture) is wider than the case. So to polish it I would have to fill the gap to make the surfaces even (see blue arrow). Can anybody give me in site on how to polish this section of the drive?

Thanks

I "polished" some #3's... then put a "fish scale" pattern on them... it lasted about 1 season before going dull and grey... save yourself the time and effort.... I'd clean them and repaint them myself.....
