Re: Poly Glow
Use mild boat soap to wash it....that's about it. It help up well against dock scratches last year. We'll see.

Still looks great. I polished last July and again in October. I shrinkwrapped down to the boot stripe this winter. Just rinse and launch.
Updated pictures soon as we get good weather.

Re: Poly Glow
Is this POLIGLOW? Is it some kind of acrylic? I was told someone applied acrylic on my blue hull and was wondering if it requires any special care. Maybe it's Poliglow?

Re: Poly Glow
That stuff does wonders for the colored hulls. Are you using it for you white topsides or conventional wax? I have an all white boat. Thanks Bob

Re: Poly Glow
I wax the topsides. It's a polymer base...very simple to apply. It hardens well...no cracks. It doesn't eradicate a bad gel coat, but it certainly improves the looks. Just be careful when applying...strokes sometimes show. Plan on 4 hours after masking. All in all...I'm happy with it. Can't do it on a windy day...swirls, snots,...running, etc. happens with wind.
