Turns out it was this guy -

Picture doesn't do justice to the size of this Moose. His underbelly was higher off the ground than the roof of my TT!

Thanks Bob. I'm guessing a good 10 hours including trial and error w/ various polishes, etc.

I used progressive grades of stick polishing compounds.................

You can see a couple of them in this picture. I bought them at Lowe's. After sanding smooth, I used grade 3-cleaning, 4, 5-light polishing, and finished with 6-high gloss polishing.
