Oxidized gelcoat voodoo?
 

Been tweaking this formula for a little while. Spray on, wipe off 90-95% of oxidation, and 1 polishing step of a micro abrasive polish. Kind of have a hard time getting good pics inside my shop with my iPhone, but you'll get the idea. Photobucket might kill quality as well. What do you guys think?

Here's a few more pics. The whole blue section took about 25 mins from start to finish on one side. No wet sanding, no multiple compounding and polishing steps. Spray, wipe, polish with dual action and wipe clean. Boat is a 1994 (I think) 22' Bayliner Capri.

Is this your product ? I have some light oxidation and would be interested in trying this.

The question is...........................how long will it last? Without cutting into fresh gel, it may come back very quickly. Remember, gelcote is porous. Silicones will give a quick false shine, only for the dull finish to return in just a couple days. An example of this is 303, mostly used for vinyl, but also recommended for gelcoat, it will give a nice shine on oxidized surfaces, but only lasts until you wash it again.

Sorry to be so pessimistic, but if it truly lasts, I am interested. My shoulders hurt just thinking about another 3-step compounding session on my 38'er!

Damn . Cory H beat me to that one .
If you have a hot date for the lake or need to fire sale your boat asap and realize you never got around to fluffing your boat ,the quick fix in the windex bottle is the way to go .
if you have something oxidized like that bayliner and want to be able to just wipe down with a towell after a day on the lake and have it shine ,everytime ,all summer long ,your going to need some sandpaper. Or a sheetload of compound and a crate of pads

Mop N Glo ! Hah !

Lolllllllllll

It is a mixture of chemicals designed to actually remove coatings and quick fixes that I often battle with. It contains no silicones or fillers. I understand this is a hard to wrap your head around as I have the same reaction to it working that well. Time will tell how long it lasts. I'll be testing it further to see if I can get boat to reoxidize. The finish in that picture was wiped down with isopropyl to remove any oils after polishing as well, no change. My background is in high end fiberglass corrections/detailing so I am highly critical of how products work myself. Here's a few corrections done the conventional way to show I'm not just some fly by night hack.
