Yessir! I ordered it on your recommendation. I like it, but it seems to leave a residue of some sort. BB said it's probably from sanding it buff marks and he's right, I can see faint marks when the light is just right. I'm about to buff both sides again. (yay)

Hey after all this time I just got your forum name :-) daaaa.
I'm not a fan of the smell of the hot sauce though. I put gloves on yesterday. The smell just stayed on my hands. Maybe I'll get used to it. I bought a gallon of it. If it removes water stains then all good.

I never tried to figure out his user name... Now I can't! Tell me!

I agree with the smell of the hot sauce - but it works.

I just make sure I do the interior as well and that stuff smells amazing! Balances out.

You funny BB! You and Liquid are the famous ones. You guys are like Cobalt guru's. Sensa "all knowing" warriors of boat knowledge. Big banana Jelly beans with all the answers.

Btw, my "go to" polish for years. It does wonders on classic cars and motorcycles, and it works really good on my boat. You should order a can and give it a try!

I got my new fuel pump and have it installed. It seemed like a good idea to go ahead and put on a new fuel pressure regulator and idle control motor so everything is fresh. The engine starts fine and purrs like a kitten, and my lake is flooded. Grrr

All dressed up and nowhere to go

FINALLY! I got her in the water today. Nasty brown water but it was a lake nonetheless. I guess the flooding has the water all stirred up.

The fuel pump worked great and I got about 4 break-in hours on the motor at various levels of rpm. Everyone said keep it at 2 to 3 thousand or below for the first 10 hours,.and I did for the most part, but had to bump about 4500 a couple times. I think me and this boat are going to get along fine!

Thanks! We're heading to our normal lake Wednesday to spend a loong Memorial weekend as long as the water continues to go down. When I do get this sucker on the water again I plan on burning at least 3 or 4 tanks of gas!
