I am trying to get the gel coat on my fishing boat back to what it looked like when it was new ( well atleast as close as i can lol). I have been using Meguiars 67 along with No 45 amd No 56. At first not knowing any better i was using an orbital polisher. Then i moved up to a rotary with a foam pad. Today i tried it with Meguiars W4000 wool pad which gave me the best results so far. What has been hapenning is that right after i go over it, it looks real good. I come back the next day and for the most part it looks like i didn't even touch. I was going to try their No 91 until i read another post here saying that they had no luck with it. So, my question is, what do you all think is the next step for me to take? I'm open to all suggestions. Here are some pics of the boat. You will notice in the second and last one how the bottom part looks good and the part in between the two with strips doesn't. The bottom part is what i did today.

These last two pics of the back are the worst of the whole boat. The rest isn't as bad.
