Greetings,

I had a custom cover made for my tiller 690 recently and I notice that the cover seems to be somewhat scuffing or 'hazing' the gel coat where it comes in contact with the boat. The cover is made with the same material as the Ranger covers, save for the fact that it does not have a soft fleecelike inside. The inside is the somewhat rough backside of the material(cannot think of the name of the material off hand). I was wondering if anyone with a ranger cover with the softer insides have better luck, or if they notice the same 'hazing'. I'd like to get this remedied, and would also like some tips on getting this out of the finish. it is just happening on the top of the gunwhale. I have tried to wax and polish, and while it makes my boat nice and shiny, it does not repair the small 'hazed' areas. Wonder if buffing would do the trick. I'll need to get something soft sewed into the cover for around the gunwhale then, but i'd like some feedback before spending the $$ on it. Thanks in advance.
