Re: car wax vs marine wax
Thank you Chuck. You have convinced me no to go with car wax. Do you suggest any specific brands?

Collinite 925 or Meguiars Flagship Premium Marine Wax. Collinite is hard to find. Just type it into Google. There are many different Collinites. The Insulator Wax is the same as 925. If you need a cleaner go the #870 then finish up with a coat of 925
# 870 - Fleetwax (a liquid cleaner with wax)
# 920 - a Liquid Cleaner (no wax)
# 925 - Fiberglass Boat Wax (a straight gel-like wax with no cleaners)
??? - a straight hard paste wax (I'm not sure of the number)
If your Fiberglass boat is oxidized or heavily oxidizedThe process will be completely different with different products to restore it to the original color.
I apply the Meguiars Flagship Premium Marine Wax with a buffer but take it off with a rag because it comes off so easy the buffer is just a pain.
Proper preparation is essential. You don't want to wax dirt or oxidation into the wax. Your actually sealing the Fiberglass and or the Paint. Then KEEP IT WAXED! I recommend three times the first year and twice a year after that.
As someone else stated you probably could use a Corvette Fiberglass wax BUT WHY?
