Turned out really well Bill. So you finally dug out the 2000 and gave it a try?

Looks Good! How did you like cleaning up after the AB2000?

It made such a mess on the deck of my boat, I will never use it again. My results were par at best. Of coarse, mine wasnt as bad as yours to start. I think it is a great product if you have a bad finish. Yours turned out great.

I did the starboard side with the 2000 a long time ago when I did the 1000. I honestly didn't see a difference, so I didn't do the other side. Still haven't done it

it was an absolute mess At first I tried to control it and wipe it up before it dried... that was a lost cause. I just let it dry and washed it off later. took some mild scrubbing, but it worked easy enough. There are still white spots all over my trailer.


looks great, what a difference
thanks!

i bet you will be taking better care of this boat now that it is looking good again. Wet-sanding is a pain, and let me tell you I get tippity top dollar if I have to break out the sandpaper on a job.
