I have what I would call pretty serious oxidation under the hull in the front. See enclosed pic. What is the best product to remedy this? Thanks!

3M Finesse and a variable speed rotary polisher with a fine pad.

So the consensus is 3M. I do have an orbital buffer, however it is not variable speed. Is there a number like on sandpaper to look for on the 'fine' pad or does it use the word 'fine'?

Do you have a harbor freight? They have a good DA polisher for a reasonable price, and the always have a 20% off coupon you can use with the sale price. Compound, finesse it II then wax. You should be good to go.
