Polishing a surfboard : how to polish a surfboard

After you have applied the resin gloss coat to your surfboard you can begin sanding the surfboard down to a fine finish. Usually start around 600 grit and work your way up to 1200 grit. Wet sanding the rails of the board is ideal.

To polish, apply a small amount of Surfboard Polish to the surface with a paintbrush. With a polishing pad on a polisher, continue polishing process until surface is clear and dry.

Once finished with this step you can move onto the swirl remover process. go over the board until there isnt any swirls left behind from the previous polishing step.

Now it's time to run over the board with some cold water. This final steps gets any small around of product off of the finished surfboard leaving a mirror shine.
