Scratches on gel-coat surface

There is no magic product to removing surface scratches other than using an abrasive product to cut through the surface of the scratches. Hand rubbing is not easy or as effective as a buffer, but you need someone that is experienced in the use of a buffer and polishing products. Swirl marks are usually created by using dirty or the wrong pads, the wrong products, or an inexperienced person using the buffer. Sealers and waxes must be reapplied after buffing to seal up any light swirl marks and to protect the now bare surfaces.
