OK guys haven't been on here in a while. So I might have missed the answer to my question. 2011 242 sides have sun faded some over the years, so what is a good product to maybe take out the fade and make it pop again. Color is the dark blue from 2011. Thanks guys in adv.
 
I watch quite a few professional paint correction videos on you tube . A lot of these are over the top detailing . Here is a good one for removing oxidation from Chemical Guys.

Also I like the guy from Dallas Paint and Correction

Its a lot of work , after any removal of oxidation Rejex is a great sealer .
 
If you are talking gelcoat then you need to do what restores gelcoat not topcoat on a vehicle two different surfaces, and approaches. I use a mequiars kit for RV's and boat that is simple and works well LINK, I use chemical guys products and they are great but there are great marine products out there SHURHOLD makes good easy products also, I've used 3M products with varying degrees of success. I'm sure the detail guys on the forum will chime in!
 
If you want to do it yourself and you do not have any equipment/experience, I would suggest Shurhold's products. Look at their website for videos.
You can spend more and get better, but Shurhold will do the job.
