Hello everyone... I just got done using the 3M Compound & Finishing Material (picture attached) and it made my 1987 v20 look fricken almost new!!! Very impressed with the product.
I am wondering... what's the best wax I can use to protect it now? The internet is filled with answers, but i always like to hear what you all have to say.

If you could post a picture that would be great. I had someone attempt to detail my 87 cuddy, but it didn't come out that good. It was/is oxidized a lot, so I would like to see how yours came out. Mine is shiny in places but streaky in places. Thanks.

I've used the maguires boat and rv in the past seems like good stuff. Here lately been using colonite and have been happy with it also. Don't think it maters much as long as it's a good wax.

I clean the hull with Marine 31 Heavy Cut Gel Coat Cleaner-Wax. Then, I lay a coat of Colinite No 845 Insulator Wax. Love that Colinite wax. It leaves a super-slick finish and the water just runs off like you wouldn't believe. I use the Colinite Insulator Wax on my vehicles too. I try to get a layer of wax on my cars in October and I still have a good bead in the spring.
