I'll start by showing the tools used, and what the tank looked like to begin with
Tools -
the Beast -

I started by cleaning all algae with scrub brush , and wiping out the inside making sure to get any sand or grit particles out of the tank .
I then applied Novus #3 ,and followed that with Novus #2 . I buffed it by hand using Novus Polish mates to give me a better feel .. just in case i missed any sand or grit while cleaning.
as you can see it did pretty well just leaving a slight blur to the finish, and a few minor scratches .
.. after hand buffing the entire tank , I then applied Novus #2 (fine scratch remover ) using power buffer
... working it in thoroughly (until near dry) before wiping it clean again with Novus polish mate .
.. still a little algae in the seams of the tank .. but it shouldnt be a problem..
all in all , it came out well ..
