Anyone know a good color restorer?
I have a 20' Centurion that has set for a couple of years. It has a really trick paint "skeeem" that I would really like to keep. It has faded to a dull finish. Is there a way to bring it back from that dull death? Any suggestions? Thanks,
LIQUID

You can buff the gel coat. I have to look to see what I did mine with, but it's not a big job. I used a drill and buffing pad and took my time. Turned out good, a big difference!

I buffed mine out too. I used a grinder with the buffing wheel attached and the stuff that painters use to buff out a job. It turned out pretty good also. I now use a product called Aerospace 303 in a spray bottle to spruce it up from time to time. I don't know how old the gel is but, and eventually it'll have to be painted or re-geled but for now it looks o.k. Not too embarassed anyway. Prior to my buffing it out it was pretty milky with a lot of white crap on it. If yours is paint you'll have to be careful or it'll take off some of the paint especially fine detail, unless it's cleared.
