Like Poly-Glow, prep and re-apply every year in Florida. I find it works great and keeps hull staining to a minimum. Good luck and post a picture..

Note: A few folks have had an allergic reaction to Poly Glow as I recall. Wear gloves and follow the label. Welcome aboard

If Ridge likes it for the Florida sun, it must be pretty good stuff, cuz he's sportin' around in one of the "purdiest" V20s on the planet!!

I like those spray curtain "wings" on that console. Those look nice. Welcome to the site. I am in NC as well.

The stuff I gave a link to has a kit with hull cleaner, soap to wash off cleaner, than the glass restorer and a aplicator. If it was me I would only buy the restoror and a large and small applicator. You can use soft scrub for the hull cleaner and dish soap to clean that off. A 32oz bottle and a few applicators will run around $65.00 plus shipping. The key to using this is to have the boat spotless because you will seal in any marks or stains in the fiberglass. It takes several coats 4 to 6 but they go quick with a 8 inch applicator. The 32oz should do the whole boat and you may have some extra. The next year will only require a couple of coats. I did my hull from rub rail to bottom paint in a couple of hours. I started at the rear and worked my way around and by the time I got back to my starting point it was dry and I could just keep going with the next coat. Here is the link again if you need it but I'm not sure which stuff works the best as they all sound like the same type stuff.
