I've been putting an inordinate amount of time in on the hull this spring, but my '95 (#211) is really starting to sparkle! The bottom three photos were taken today:

My steps:

1.  Cleaner - On & Off
2.  Compound - 3M Marine Rubbing 
Compound (machine applied and buffed)
3.  Polish - 3M Finesse It II (machine applied, buffed by hand)
4.  Glaze - Meguiars #7 Show Car Glaze (applied and buffed by hand)
5.  Wax - Collinite Fleetwax #885 (not yet done, but will be applied and buffed by hand)

She goes back in the water on Tuesday.
