I'm preparing to sand, polish, and wax my LS-4A wings. Lets discuss
recommendations on final grits, polish, etc. Thanks! Joe


Joe,
I use 600 wet on a 12 inch block to remove the yellow stuff, then 800 wet on a
6 inch block to remove the 600 scratches. I follow this up with two buffings
using a wool pad and 3-M liquid rubbing compound. I use Mothers Gold paste wax.
You can get all this stuff at a good automotive paint store. Buy a couple pair
of kitchen rubber gloves, so you won't lose your fingerprints. Keep a sharp eye
out for not going too low, when you see a gray area, you are all ready too low.
You can make that LS-4 look like a new lady again, then don't leave her out in
the sun too much and she will look good for years to come.
