Disreguard the last post. If I would have read the tread I would have seen you used Micro compound. Sorry

I would say mine is fairly rigid as well. Its just a basic 6" hook and loop backing plate- I think the brand is Milwaukee.

Off/On hull cleaner works great. Ive heard muriatic acid works well too. Just dont let them sit long on decals, paint (trailer), etc.

Slimey Grimey, works like magic, use it every fall on the boats that sit in Lake Erie all season, I will apply with a weed sprayer and as soon as it hits the grime and algae it rolls right off
