Arthur restores oxidized and scuffed gelcoat on the boat hull using automotive products, specifically T-Cut and Autoglym polish.Watch The process involves wet sanding heavily damaged areas to remove oxidation and surface scratches, followed by the application of T-Cut to smooth the finish and Autoglym to restore shine.0:08 While deep scratches that penetrated the gelcoat remain visible, the treatment significantly reduces the appearance of surface scuffs and improves the overall luster of the hull.2:56 The damage originated from the boat being laid up against a muddy, gritty tidal wall using old tires as fenders.9:41 To access hard-to-reach areas at the bow, the crew uses a dinghy rather than moving the boat in a fast-moving river.3:38 Cleaning the fenders prevents further abrasion to the restored finish.9:29 The technique successfully masks oxidation and minor surface marks, though it does not repair deep structural gouges in the gelcoat.8:30
