Default Shinny new hull

Just wanted to see if any of you have heard of, or tried a product called New Glass2? I just did the first of several coats on my 1992 V20 C/C and it looks like new again. I can use my hull side as a mirror now! No sanding or polishing or waxing. Just a thourogh wash and scrub, and then wipe on a few coats. I did the entire hull from the rub rail to the boot strip in about 3 hours. Just waiting for the weather to break here to start on the inside.

Thanks guys. I'm in Wilmington, NC and yes I am a marina manager. I don't really have any good pics before, but I'll get them up anyway. Here she is before refinishing and christening in her slip. She was extremely chalky, like you get gelcoat on you from looking at it.

I used some stuff called Vertglas which sounds like the same stuff. You just scrub the boat down and apply several coats. How many coats did your need to get a even shine? Here's is a link and the pics they post are the same types of results I had and it will last a good year. I'll never use wax again.

Just bought a 1984 v20 Fisherman and while it's in really good shape, there is a bit of oxidation on the her. Sounds like Vertglas is just what I need! Anyone have an idea of how well it holds up in Florida weather? Sarasota area to be exact...thanks

Welcome to the site!

You may not get a lot of responses because the thread is 7 years old. But someone did say you need to reapply it every year, just not as many coats on subsequent applications.
