Have not used that but looks reassuringly expensive even on ebay, I normally use Collinite Fleet wax as a cleaner wax mid season which is great. But having never compounded a boat before with a machine polisher until the weekend, I couldn’t believe the results. The boat looked so good it got me worrying about the scratch cowl decals on the outboard. Wish I had not bothered now!

Good budget solution: Farecla G3 and mop, then use Carnabau Wax for a fantastic shine - Blakes Marine Paints do it in tins
