Dulon 13 (Ultra Strong) restores extremely weathered, chalky, discoloured, and aged surfaces. This professional polishing compound has an ultra-coarse grit and also removes deep scratches, stubborn stains, and streaks. Dulon 13 can be used on hard materials such as gelcoat, painted steel, painted wood, and stainless steel.
Tip: this extra-coarse compound is only suitable for heavily weathered surfaces. For lightly weathered surfaces, use Dulon 16 (Compound Fine).

Directions for use
Dulon 13 Rubbing Compound Ultra Strong is easy to use and can be applied manually or with a machine. A 500 ml container of Dulon 13 is suitable for treating boats 10–15 metres long.
Pre-treatment (if necessary)
- Use Dulon 22 (Hull & Waterline Clean) to remove limescale and brown/yellow marine stains.
- Use Predulon 00 to clean the surface of dirt, grease, oils and traces of old wax or silicone layers.
Manual polishing
- Apply Dulon 13 with a damp microfibre cloth or applicator sponge using firm, circular motions.
- Remove polishing residue with a clean microfibre cloth.
Machine polishing (recommended)
- Apply a small amount of the compound to a damp hard polishing pad (orange).
- Spread the product over the surface before turning the machine on.
- Polish the surface at low speed using slow, controlled movements (work horizontally and vertically).
- Gradually increase the speed until the desired result is achieved.
- Remove the polishing residue with a clean microfibre cloth.
Tip: finish the polished surface with Dulon 1&2 or Dulon 19 (Premium Boat Wax) for long-lasting protection.

The recommended application temperature range indicates the conditions under which the product can generally be applied and cured properly. Three temperatures matter:
- Air: the temperature in the workshop or outdoors.
- Substrate: the temperature of the surface being treated.
- Product: the temperature of the resin, adhesive or coating itself.
A cold substrate can cause condensation and affect adhesion. At higher temperatures, two-component products may react faster, reducing their working time. Check the dew point and follow the product instructions.
- 5-25 °C
-
Grit size affects how much material an abrasive removes and how fine the resulting scratch pattern is. On the FEPA-P scale, the higher the P number, the finer the abrasive grit.
- P60-P80: coarse sanding, stripping old coatings or removing pronounced unevenness.
- P120-P180: further levelling and intermediate sanding.
- P240-P400: finer sanding before the next finishing stage.
- P600 and finer: very fine sanding or preparation for polishing, depending on the material.
These are general guidelines. Choose the grit based on the substrate, desired finish and instructions for the next coat. Different grit grading standards are not always directly comparable.
- Very coarse

The conditions under which a product best retains its quality, including temperature, humidity and protection from direct sunlight. Keeping containers tightly closed is particularly important for moisture-sensitive or volatile products.
- Store dry, away from light and frost-free

Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
