Love the video. You really turned that little boat into a work of art. Really envy your wood working ability. The cherry looks awesome. B

Wow Mike, nice job on the video and GREAT job on the boat! What did the windshield restoration involve? Is that a polishing compound on the windshield? Details please?

I tried this on a thin grinding sheild and was amazed at the results.

I couldent find the last 2 steps but the 1st 2 steps removed all my deep scratches on the plastic windshiels. Then I used meguires headlight restorer and it took the dull out and made it clear. Start on the biggrst scratches 1st, it really works, Mike
