Just wondering if anyone has tried this stuff?

Looks like it may be too good to be true. Let me know your experience. And yes I have spent HOURS waxing, buffing and polishing the last few years.

Thanks

Was it as easy as they say to put on? Even if you have to do it every year it still sounds easier than the old fashioned way.

putting it on is real easy.....but the prep of scrubbing and rubbing the oxidization off is a LOT of work. not too bad on a small boat I suppose. They give you a 3M barbeque scrubby sort of thing for the oxide removal... good exercise for sure.... wax off wax off....wax off....wax off... wax on

I tried it a few years ago, only on a burgandy colored gel coat stripe on my boat. It looked good for a while but the next year it looked like crap and before you could put more on I pretty much had to take it all off first and it's a real pain to take off. Now I do the good old compound polish and wax, boat looks great. IMO...if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is! There's no short cuts to keeping the glass looking good.

That's what I was afraid of. Guess I'll just have to get the elbow grease out.

Thanks guys
