Easy three steps guys....
Polish Clean Sharkhide!:lol:
Polish the sides,top cap, bow(down to a little below the waterline) and the transom.
BPS makes a decent polish but, it will take a couple of bottles or you can splurge for the more expensive 3M aluminum polish but, thinks it's over rated IMHO. You'll need a ton of towels because of the black oxidation coming off. You can use a buffer but, be careful of the decals and have plenty of spare bonnets.
I applied Sharkhide with those little 4" foam rollers for painting smaller stuff (works great BTW). Pick a smaller area to apply (say a 2'X 2' area) apply the hide evenly with light even strokes because this stuff is pretty thin..then, LIGHTLY go back over to remove bubbles and uneven spots and runs. Note: Sharkhide starts setting up within a minute or two (thus the 2'X 2' area). The topcap can be applied with a light rag. Stay at least an 1/8" away from decals because it will eat them eventually.
Go to Sharkhide.com to learn more about the product.
Can't say enough good about it....worth it's weght in gold. I use for just about any metal including a 3' brass eagle on the front of my house that I repolished on a buffing wheel then applied the hide.
I think it comes from outer space
:lol:
Take pictures when done! One last thing..The SS Tracker looks better today and did you notice the date on the pic?
