When you wet the board in water, does the colour come back? And after it dries looks like the above?

Hi yes if i get it wet it looks normall colourfoul so i need a layer of something to get the color shining back!
and i use 600 sandpaper and does urethane will work?
or would a clear lacquer do it??
Thanks

if you sanded it with 600 you have to get sand grade a lot finer ( first 800 and then 1200) after use a buffing compound( i use 3m perfect it ) to get gloss back, it depends on how damaged the surface is . Have you gone through into the glass fibres or only gloss? also depends on weather you are using machine to buff and sand.
if you have deep scratching it may have to be resprayed (many 2 k clears or polyeurethanes around. Jamdfingr. if there is no gloss on board water sticks to the board and creates drag it is slower i think.

Am I missing something.... How can you accidentally sand your board???

^^Came here to post that. I think the translation is "Sanded my board thinking it would look great but it accidentally looks terrible."

the scratches werent very deep, only over the gloss there isnt any more scratches only the problem is the color went away so i need a spray or paint to get it color back
as i say when i wet it it look nice and shinny but when it dries it looks like that so any sudjest of any spray to use so i can get it shining back like epoxy, polyurethane, urethane, or lacquer??????
Thanks

My car is the same...
Get the hose out and it looks brand new.
Water dries and then it looks like the 10 year old car that it is.
Let me know how you go with the spray paint, I might rub my car back with wet n dry and give it a touchup.

Clear acrylic or 2pack will do the job

Accidently sand the top as well so it looks like its ment to be that way.


Whooops, I accidently fell over on top of my girlfriends best friend and got her pregnant......
