Been wanting to try out some adam's stuff for awhile now.

I've got a badly faded gelcoat on my boat.

I'd like to give it a good buff. What do you recommend? Looking for buffing pads and compound.

I dont have a highspeed buffer, would an electric drill do the trick?

A drill isn't gonna do the job... you'll kill dozens of pads trying to do something the size of a boat with the focus pads, they're really only for spot correction and tight space work.

If you need the tool as well as the pads and polishes you'll want something like this:

After correction you'll need something to protect it, depending on what you want to do there I can make a few suggestions, but as far as fixing the problems that kit is where you'd want to start.
