HOLY CRAPIOCA, buffing is hard work!! This crap takes forever!
Took me 4-5 hours to get one valve cover done, and it still needs a few more fine cut buffs, with the Tripoli ruge to really shine, but good Lord, my arms are whooped!!!! LOL!
My much better half thinks I'm crazy, but it's a labor of love!!
Probably wouldn't be as hard if the covers weren't so ruff from the sand cast!
Anyhow... here's a couple pix....
Back to the garage now.....
Well, got both valve covers polished! Bought a new air angle polisher and coarse, medium, and fine scotch pads- DEFFINATELY made the job easier!!! I may do the tops again, to erase any little pits/ scratches left, but the shine is there, now! Big improvement!
Looks like it's coming together nicely [emoji1360]

Wow, like deja vu all over again....I too had a 78 Sonic which I sold to a guy up that way. Sadly, he came to a tragic end, not boat related. The boats have an interesting history. They were. (so the story goes), used by the Coast Guard in south Florida as interceptors. In fact, when I owned it, (I suspect it's the same boat), it was a pale blue to the water line with a white deck. The bottom of the hull was just black gelcoat, like yours. It had a small chip on the dash, which revealed a "Coast Guard" orange underneath. I suspect, it was an orange stripe like the Coast Guard used. I owned several jets over the years, and that one is the only one I wished I had kept. Kind of a gull wing design, the ride was exceptional. I'll try to find an old pic of it and post if I can. I'm in Acworth, Ga, and if I can help you in any way please let me know.
