I realize there a bunch of options for this, but I could only get the following at my local store. Do I have this in the correct order and/or am I missing anything? I'm trying to clean, remove minor hull stains, and apply a coat or many coats of wax to protect against sun damage/yellowing:
(all applied by hand as I do not have an orbital)
- Starbrite Boat Wash
- Starbrite Hull Cleaner
- Starbrite Marine Polish w/PTEF
- 3M Marine Cleaner & Wax (For lightly oxidized fiberglass surfaces)
I have done plenty of cars using Zaino treatments where order of products was important, but I have not done a job on a boat yet so I want to make sure I get this correct.

I wouldnt say you have to do star brigt products but if you like them. But if your boat is just dirty and no oxidized I would go with a good wash, then a cleaner wax and then if you feel as if it needs more than go with a wax/polish. But if you have oxidation than use the 3m stuff to get rid of it then cleaner wax than a nice wax on top
