    sanding gelcoat

    I have some scratches in the gelcoat deep enough that after you wax and buff the hull you can see the wax left in the scratch. My question is this, how much if any can you sand the gelcoat before you damage it and if you can sand it do you just compound wax and buff afterward? Thanks.
