My 22' aquasport was awlgrip (or similar) painted before I purchased it 3 years ago. It is in need of a new paint job. I am trying to sell the boat and would like to clean up the appearance without having to repaint it. The appearance is dull with winter stains.<br /><br />What waxes should I use?<br /><br />Should I use compound first?<br /><br />I own a random orbit sander.<br /><br />I was planning on using a abrassive cleaner like soft scrub to clean it well first then wax it to seal and add shine.<br /><br />Any help would be appreciated..<br /><br />Thanks

It was painted 8-10 years ago. I can see yellow/orange primer in a few small areas under a white top paint

these spots are where the paint has been rubbed away and are few and far between like where a bumper rubbed up against the boat too much for too long.

I also own a random orbit buffer
