After our outing on Saturday, I decided to wash the underside of the boat. While it's clean I figured I may as well get a coat of wax on there. Is there a product that is better for the bottom than others? I usually use Collinite for the sides (straight carnauba, no cleaner) but I don't think that's the longest lasting wax on the planet. It's easy on, easy off though and I don't mind doing it. What did you use to glaze/wax the bottom of your hull?

Thanks,
Mark

I was wondering what you do to wax were the boat is on the bunks. Not to hijack the thread

Waxed around the bunks. I have used Rejex the past two seasons and it has been great! Got the product from this same type of discussion a couple years ago.

Since I don't have a boat I'm of little help to suggest products I've tried. That being said, I use Chemical Guys products for my vehicles and they make some really good high quality stuff. Here is their boast and RV product line-up http://www.chemicalguys.com/Boat_Marine_and_RV_s/621.htm. When I finally get a boat I will be trying out a lot of their boat care products and will give you my thoughts on them.

For old boats or any chalky or a dull sun bleached appearance this stuff works like magic; literally!

I had great luck bringing back my old 1990's boat back to looking like new again. I highly recommend it.
