gelcoat preservation
Hello, which of the products in my picture would you use to get the best results for cleaning and protection on my boat? This is a new boat with no oxidation problems.
Collinite 840 cleaner followed by the 476s wax or the DuraGloss 501?
Thank you

Re: gelcoat preservation
Good question.
I've used the Duragloss 501, but not the Collinite 840 cleaner which if I recall is cheaper, but both Collinite and Duragloss are top notch companies. The #476 should last much longer than the sealant in the #501, but you need to consider how often you may wish to clean the surface each year. No sense in applying #476 if you want to clean AND protect often.
I'd have to consider cost of each cleaner and also ease of use if I was in your shoes, which I am not.
I do find it interesting the comments on the upper right of that #840 bottle, "not for dark clear coats"...that's interesting.

Collinite. DG's 501 is less than 6 months and probably should be re-done around 3. Collinite 885 is also a good contender.

Re: gelcoat preservation
Regardless of the time needed to re apply the protection....Which of the products provide better protection?
The DG501 or the collinite tandem?

I am a real DG fan but I have to vote for the 476S on this one. I personally have 885 on my 32' fifth wheel.
