:To get the rest of the way, I am using a progression of Meguiars polishes where the
: last step is a layer of wax. Then I buff on a coat of Meguiars Final
: Inspection.
: And yes, this is likely a complete waste of time once I have paddled for 10
: minutes. I suspect that this project is a little different for me than
: most. I have been working on my King for 5 1/2 years. It has been strictly
: a spare time endeavour. I have told my friends that it is an art project
: that will end up as a kayak. For me, the polishing effort is like the last
: step of the "art project" phase.

Yes grasshopper. Lay on lay off lay on lay off.
