Anybody have any experience with Costa Coat gelcoat restoring liquid? I am buffing my boat but it is impossible to get between the boat and the wheel wells with the buffer.
My set up is a bit different, I took the intake hose and put it in a 5 gallon bucket with mixed antifreeze and ran it till the mix was discharged. I used real anitfreeze. I also have a couple of drain cocks way down low. I am running a single screw no outdrive.
I drain the motor then I pump it full of antifreeze, pull the thermostat so I don't have to run the engine till it warms up to pump the mix thru till it discharges. Cheap insurance and makes me comfortable all winter long.

I hope for another summer like last summer we got to sit at the end of the dock and watch loons fish and teach their youngster. Loon migration is amazing. We are so blessed to live on a super clear lake with visibility on a secchi of 14 feet.
I seem to have avoided infection. Was back down in Florida to pack up the family home kayaks gone, will probably never be dumb enough to wade fish in Florida again.
