ugg i cant scroll through the posts while i reply, so i have to rely on my memory of what i just read…memory isnt as good as it once was…
anyway, yeah “ive never done wet sanding when sanding a gloss coat” is what i like to hear… as im trying to get away from the whole wet sanding thing…
because when wet sanding with a power sander, and i get the suction thing, i could literally lift the board in the air by the sander … and thats no good…
ill give it all a shot till i find what i like but would like to keep it dry… sure wet sanding the rails is no problem but would love to get the rest done dry…
so whats the deal with surluster? i hear that alot here… right now im using 3M imperial compound/finishing material, great stuff…BUT that shit costs about 50 bucks a quart, so im pretty tired of that…
the 3M compound is something i started using when building boats, like i say works good… but damn 50 bucks?
so id like to get away from that too, the companies i deal with dont seem to carry sureluster… but some have something like #2 compound, supposedly made just for surfboard resin, and its about 1/4 the cost of the 3M… so id love to switch…
ive used the 3M brown crap, its cheap but then i need something else to finish off the scratches that the baby crap left… so then more money /time wasted…
is sure luster a surfboard specific sort of polish? or could i pick it up at the local quality boat/automotive store?
thanks alot, seems like im getting somewhere…
by the way im not exactly new, just been away for so long that i cant remember my old name or password, so had to make a new one… i remember some of your names from years ago, you might or might not remember me… but since i cant remember my old name…haha forget it…im new now…again.
