tle carried away with the
buffer in the previous step,
just apply Finesse-It II
Glaze to smooth things out.
As a final step, apply
3M™ Scotchgard™ Marine
Liquid Wax, 3M™ Marine
Ultra Performance Paste
Wax or 3M™ Marine
Liquid Wax to provide UV
protection from the sun’s
damaging rays.
One-Step Process
(Heavy Oxidation)
3M™ Marine Restorer and
Wax is designed to remove
heavy oxidation, chalking,
fading, minor scratches,
rust and exhaust stains.
Simultaneously, it leaves
behind a hard coat of wax
that protects the finish from
further oxidation.
Using this 3M product
combines two steps and
helps you finish the job
faster.
One-Step Process
(Light Oxidation)
3M™ Marine Cleaner and
Wax removes light oxidation
and also provides a just-
waxed finish. It works well
for newer boats that do not
have heavy oxidation. It is
effective on small rust spots
or stains when you don’t
want to use a heavy-duty
cleaner. Simply put a little
fiberglass cleaner on a rag,
and buff out the spot. Then,
wipe it off with a dry cloth.
The spot is gone, but the
wax finish remains.
To resurrect the gloss
in gelcoat, use 3M™
Color/Gloss Restorer. This
compound/polish combines
an exceptionally fast-cutting
compound with a finishing
material in one. It removes
light to heavy oxidation,
scratches, stains, blemishes,
and fine swirl marks. Follow
up with Scotchgard™
Marine Liquid Wax or 3M™
Marine Liquid Wax to main-
tain the gloss.
