Default How to Refinish Corian in your Newell Motor Coach

Just an FYI, in case any of you have some scratched Corian,

After looking up on the web, I tried the SoftScrub and ScotchBrite method, to no result. So I dove in and started with 100 grit paper on an orbital palm sander, which was scary, but really removed layers of material. I basically used this to get about 90% through the depth of the scratches, doing the entire surface to keep things flat. After that I stepped up from 100, to 150, to 220, to 400, to 600, to 1000 and finally 1500. The last 4 grits I did wet and it left it smooth as glass. After that I used a buffer and polishing compound and finished up with a good waxing, which finally made it look as dark as I knew it should be (black with white specks).

about 10 pads or sheets of sand paper and nearly 6 hours of work and it looks like new again!
