While trying to clean some stubborn stains off my fibreglass boat, I lost the shine. How do I restore the shine?

Re: Lost the shine

What did you use to cause that to happen? You may just have some chemial residue left on the surface....
On chalky (is there such a word) dull finish, wash it good, wipe with Laquer thinner. I have used 2000 & 2500 microfine and wet sand. Then I use Evercoat Machine Glaze with a power buffer. Wax with Mothers Carnuaba to a fine shine. I prefer the Evercoat product line and cost less then 3M. Get microfine paper and polish from your commercial auto paint supply.
