Anybody tried any new spray and wipe product for bringing back color and protecting fiberglass, without the yearly stripping and re-applying of products like Poli-glow?

No I did it the old fashioned way. Sand buff and UV Protectant wax. Now I just got to wax,

havent found a product that works except the old-fashioned, elbow-grease intensive method that chevy mentions...... wet-sanding, buffing and waxing.

I would not strip & re-coat Poli-glow on an annual basis. It shouldn't need it. . . Maybe every 3-4 years.

Agree with the elbow grease method. Shining over a chalk fade is a temporary band aid. You have to cut through it to get down to non-oxidized glass. Once there, a good buffing and wax every other year will keep the shine. My 23 yr old glass shines like new.
