Best Boat/Jetski wax/sealant?

**purplenurple** · 08-19-2007, 03:13 PM

I am wanting to wax/seal our boat and jetskis to prevent fading and oxidation, even though they are all only 2-3 yrs old. Which wax/sealant is the most durable for a marine application? The collinite and duragloss marine lines look nice, and Megs looks ok as well. Durability and protection are most important, and shine and gloss are second.

Thanks.

I've used Collinite 915 and 845 on boat/waverunners, works fine and durable, some of their Marine/Auto products are similar just relabeled anyway I believe, somebody on here had a list comparing Marine/Auto from Collinite which matches to what.

all these waxes are the same just different names....all in the same Family....

#476s Super Doublecoat Paste Wax
#900 Mold Release
#885 Fleetwax Paste
#S-238 Insulator Paste Wax

these will do very good on a water craft...they also have one for a water craft..

which is #930 and they have no others in that family....meaning there is nothing but that wax

and #915 will do good also..thats another thats all alone...no other waxes like 915

if you go to collinites web site..look at the product...then look at the MSDS sheet..it will tell you what waxes are the sam as the one you looked at....

Ok, thanks guys. Can anyone give me a single, most-prefered, wax? I waste too much time picking out car stuff, and just want to get something that just works for the skis and boat.

Thank you, sir. Where in central FL are you? Do you drive a Z06?

EDIT - Can I use the wax on the vynil graphics on the side, and also what can I use to polish the vynil and gelcoat?

Collinite 845 for Wax. I use 3M Imperial Compound with Finishing Material for a Compound. XMT 360 for polish / sealant

1. 3M
2. XMT360
3. Collinite 845

Seems to be the most durable IMO.
