    Whats a good fiberglass Wax

    Whats a good al around marine wax for fiberglass that doesn't require a buffer? Looking for something old school, rub on with a damp sponge let it dry then rub it off with a lint free cloth.

    Collinite. https://www.collinite.com/product/no...leetwax-paste/

    Collinite has by far the most % of carnuba wax. The 885 is the longest lasting but doesn't "cut" at all; so it doesn't remove any oxidation or scratches. They have other waxes.

    I've gotten away from waxes with the advent of "ceramic" finish products and the like. The problem with wax is that it leaves a white residue in all the little cracks and crannies that you never get out. The "new" stuff is pretty much wipe on/wipe off.

    If the fiberglass/gelcoat are in good shape Colinite 825 is very good. Long lasting and very easy to on/off if used sparingly and not allowed to sit on surface too long. 5 minutes max.
