We had a corrosion expert teach a week long class at work and he was the one that recommended this. Once it gets embedded in the stainless, the rust can spread.

Should I use a buffing wheel on it to get it to shine nicely? Cliff 1966 13' Sport with a 1993 40hp Yamaha 2 Smoker

That is what all the sanding talk is about above. you will have to work up to a really fine abrasive be it wet sanding or polish on a wheel.
