    Worked for Mechanical Dummy

    I have a 95 Procraft, gold/black and red. It was oxidized badly and looked pretty bad in spots.

    Saturday I was supposed to go with my boat dealer fishing but the wind blew us off the lake.

    Tom fired up a Makita polisher/buffer and got out some Meguiar Heavy and Light Cut polish.

    Ran it on the 1 setting with a small amount of polish dribbled on it. Looks 300% better, it was fun and looks great. Then he set it to 4 and we buffed it fast, made a track came back down it twice and "blew off the powder".

    I need to wax it now and do some other things. But I was amazed at what a few hours of light work did to restore the cap. Sorry, no pics.

    If its oxidated just be aware it may come right back in the sun. The only way to make it last is to sand off the oxidized clear and then buff with compound.

    Hope it last in your case I never got that lucky
