Anyone try these? I have been sold for many years on Performance Boat Candy wax, but am considering these ceramic products for use on my hull due to easy of application.

We boat the Missouri River, even though lift kept, the mineral stains don't take long to leave their yellowish brown stains. I typically wax the bottom of my hull every spring (not a fun task on a 38" boat BTW) and it keeps the gelcoat sealed up well for the first month or so. Once I use Iron Out or The Works to clean the stain, it comes back again within a couple outings.

Wondering if the Topcoat F11 would last longer than wax, or is it easy enough to quickly apply while on lift? I see some products are applied with a foam gun and simply rinsed with water. Seems too good to be true to me.

You should get a few answers here but put this in general discussion and I'm sure more people have tried than look on the paint forum.

I Tried F11 on my boat before getting it ceramic coated, There is no comparison. The F11 works, and makes it shine, but you'll want to re apply it after every other outing I would think. Ceramic coating is by far the best option.

I am wanting to do ceramic on my boat as well before the season starts. I am curious as to what products to buy to apply it myself as well as how to estimate the amount needed.
