Default Performance Boat Candy Wax

I usually use the two step process with leverage oxidation remover followed by their pure wax form. Usually holds up OK for a couple weeks. Boat is used in saltwater ONLY. I try to stay away from compound/cleaner combo's, but the site seems legitimate and is endorsed by reputable people (ie teague). Anyone have any experience? Willing to try it out if theres enough good reviews. It's tough doing full two step detaisl 4 times a summer

Personally, I only like the liquid sprays for a quick shine. I don't feel this gives the protection as good as the traditional way.

We use Boat Candy and it works great. If you have a good coat of wax on your boat before you go out on the water, it works the best. With some quick spray cleaners out there, it will take off your coat of wax but Boat Candy seems to not strip the wax...

Do you mean Zymol????
Yes. I've used it. It looks good, but is a lot of work. It didn't seem to look any better or last any longer than Frenzy or Leverage though.

Im confused. Is this stuff supposed to be used as a spray wax or abrasive? In addition, anyone use collonite?

The only product I've used by them is thier "Speed Gloss" and I'm assuming this is the product you're talking about.... As far as I know it is to be used as a quick spray cleaner/wax, but I could be wrong...

I've used it two different ways... One, when we are on the water and have some water spots and/or feel like wiping the boat down. It does a great job of taking off the water spots aswell as giving a great shine. Two, right after we get off the water and don't have time to do a full clean that day...

Like I said before, similar to other quick spray cleaners it seems to work better when you already have a nice coat of wax on your boat, but Boat Candy does not strip your existing wax like other cleaners do.

I hope this helps.

Well now that you asked... I didn't dare want to hijack!

I boat on the Mississippi river which isn't salt, but muddy and likes to stain. I have tried many waxes and by far the longest lasting one that I found and continue to use today is Collinite Heavy Duty Paste Fleet Wax 885. I use a sponge applicator and take it off with old 100% cotton t-shirts. It actually goes on and off really easy which is a plus!
