Hi Folks
This is a bit different. I need some advice on an electric polisher – not for my car but for my narrow boat. It is a relatively new boat and was painted to a gloss automotive type finish about 8 years ago. The paintwork is looking a bit tired after being out in the sunlight all this time. It really needs a light T-cut and polish but the problem is – the boat is 57 feet long and I don’t have the energy or inclination to polish both sides of a 57 foot boat. Those of you who are thinking “well that’s what your wife is for” must believe me that we have already had that conversation.
We have bought a cheap electric polisher from Halfords but it is hopeless. It doesn’t seem to do any polishing and if I press hard it makes swirls. [Used on little seen areas so far]. Is there a polisher I can obtain that works and is likely to be useful in this situation? - I have 240v and 12 v electricity supplies. Also advice on polish – I have tried the Autoglym I use on my car which is Ok but there may be better alternatives for this size of task. Thanks.
