question on POLI GLOW?? advice??
 

ok, I have got a older powerplay ..that red white and black the finish when wheeled out only last like maybee 2 weeks..??

this boat is at the point that it is not really worth much being it is 20 years old....

is POLI GLOW a good route to take??? any one use ait and how did it work for them ??? Saw it at the boat show in Tampa..looked good on a old red Canoe they had there as a example??

Re: question on POLI GLOW?? advice??
 

wet sand and clear coat the boat

Re: question on POLI GLOW?? advice??
 

Probably not getting all the oxidation off and it keeps coming back through after its buffed and waxed. Use a heavier cut buffing compund to start with.

who should I look for to hit it with some clear coat ??

do you wax after you wet sand it or then just hit it with the clear coat ???

THANKS FOR THE ADVICE...

Re: question on POLI GLOW?? advice??
 

Nope, it's just wet sand no wax. Then clear, you will need a pro if you dont wanna pay them to fix your mistakes as well ( Im livin proof ) .
Everyone that has a red boat feels your pain. Good luck.

Yea, wax weekly or pink it is.

Re: question on POLI GLOW?? advice??
 

Thats the only way to make it last.

I would suggest going to a good body shop.
if you have never wetsanded before its is not a good
idea to practice on your boat.

There are 1000grit, 1500 microfine and 2000 grit
aswell. If buffing with a wool pad and 3m Rubbing compound
dont bring it back nothing will.

Pooring water on a dull spot will give a pretty good indication
of what it will look like with new clearcoat.


Good luck

I'm not familiar with Poli Glow but I have used a product called Vert Glass on my buddies old Glastron Ski Machine.

If you're looking for a relatively quick fix without spending a bunch of $$$ for a professional clear coat job, this stuff works pretty good and will last for the season. You lay it down with a sponge. Like anything,the better the prep job, the better it works.
