Just bought a 2006 Smokercraft Pro Mag 161. The aluminum hull has a few scrapes and scuffs from rubbing docks etc. Some are small with a few being about 2" X 2" or so. Haven't been able to find many sources of advice for just touching up these spots - most sources are about doing the whole hull. Any advice for me -don't need to do a perfect job- just looking to make it look better than it does with the scrapes....Thanks!!

:welcome: aboard ahalls. Nice to have you join us...

If that is really all you have, try some polishing compound with a soft cloth and go lightly until you see how it works. Looks to be superficial and some polishing compound should work. If you need to get more aggressive, try rubbing compound. It is a little more aggressive then polishing compound. JMHO!

Good Sound Advice^^^. Go Slow to ensure you don't rub thru the paint. If,BIG IF, you need a bit more UMPH, try wet sanding with 600 grit wet/dry paper and again EASY does it!!!!:nod:
