Getting my boat looking good for the tournament season, I decided to restore the cowling on my Mercury optimax, but I really didnt want to sand it all the way down and paint it again. So I wet sanded it, buffed and polished it now it looks like new!

Would the same work for the bottom part of the motor also? aka the wet sanding, buffing, polish, etc? Great video btw!
@DinsmoreOutdoors
@DinsmoreOutdoors 3 года назад
I would be careful because they do not normally spray clear coat on the trunk of the outboard just the fiber glass covering. so you could do the buffing and polishing but wet sanding may remove paint.

If you use the sand paper it will put scratches all over the decals, if you just buff and polish it shouldn't mess with them. I polish over mine all the time and doesn't bother them.

I would be careful doing that because they might have not clear coated it, so then you would be sanding right into the paint.

Hey man I loved your video.. One question after you had finished you put on the decals then the buffer again then the wax over the top of the decals too but how about another layer of clear coat? Or is the wax pretty much the same thing? Thanks buddy.. Lee in Greece.
@DinsmoreOutdoors
@DinsmoreOutdoors 4 года назад
Good to here from you! Clear coating in like paint you have to tape everything off and have the equipment to do it. What I was doing most everyone can do at home and not needing painting equipment to do it. Waxing just helps protect the paint from water spots and the sun from fading your paint back out. I hope this helps answer your question.

I went through this video step by step last night on my outboard, we have the same engine I believe looks like my XR6. My problem is I can still see the old decal spots but I have been over it twice with the 1000 and 2000GRT Sp. I used megs ultimate compound by hand and griot garage polish by hand.. no where near as shiny it is more dull than when I started...any help would be appreciated I am scared to sand anymore
