[QUOTE="weweber3, post: 417624, member: 21362"] I tested some 400 grit on the aluminum (unpainted) rail on my '66 Sea King and the result were pretty solid - no scratching, but felt like maybe I was right on the edge of scratching. Is this an appropriate, meaning will not scratch, solution for all unpainted aluminum? Such as the inside of the boat's gunwale where it is unpainted? Should I up the grit to 600 or 800? Other solution I am not thinking of? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
