I just made a post about this in the BOATING forum. I just got the 3M sealer & restorer. This stuff works GREAT!!! My boat had a haze and now looks great. Got it from BPS.

I used rubbing compound and TONS of elbow grease. I then used Finish 2001 to seal it. Looks brand new. BMurray's way sounds easier.

Yea it was Bass Pro Shop. It was $9.99 for an average size bottle. The trick is not to let it haze very long before removing it. It even tells you for really bad areas to use a buffing disc in a cordless drill. The stuff really worked on my boat.

Hi well had similar problems as yours and was surfing around the local marina looking around and was looking at some polish and cleaner, picked it up off the shelf and one of the employees came over and said try this as we use this on all our used boats coming in and red is the worst,,,,, it is made by rex-co and it's called clean and glaze and made in georgia, tried it and it works great and put a wax on after using this stuff ......looks excellant, it is actually used for cleaning molds on plastic injection machines, as i have probably 100 bucks worth of stuff in my garage that didn'y\t work or it lasted about a day....tried it all 3m - whatever ... this stuff works great and was 30bucks for a 1 ltr jug will last a few years, the fella at the marina said you only need to use it once a year......
