3M 7000044932 Marine High Gloss Gelcoat Compound 1 Gal

Product Description

The 3M 7000044932 is a marine-grade high gloss gelcoat compound formulated for restoring and polishing gelcoat surfaces on fiberglass boats and marine watercraft. It features a unique low-sling formulation that reduces compound scatter during machine buffing, keeping the work area cleaner and improving operator control. Best results are achieved when paired with a slow-speed rotary polisher running between 1500 and 2500 RPM. The compound is designed to cut and refine oxidized or lightly scratched gelcoat, leaving a smooth base for a final finishing step. Marine detailers and boat yard technicians are the typical installers for this product.

This compound is suited for use on fiberglass gelcoat surfaces in residential and commercial marine applications. It is intended for use as part of a multi-step restoration process on boat hulls, decks, and other gelcoat panels. For optimal results, follow the compounding step with 3M Marine Finesse-It II Finishing Material (PN 09048) to achieve a clean, high-gloss final finish. The compound is sold in a 1-gallon container with a minimum order quantity of 4 units.
