Yes, people on this list have very different opinions about PoliGlow - my experience has been favorable. I’ve been using it every spring since buying Cat's Paw (bright red hull) in 2009 with good results. If there is a haze anywhere, Poliglow does not get rid of that, as the directions warn. And getting rid of the haze is hard work (have not tried ammonia, so I will try that this spring). The company recommends removing that haze before applying Poliglow, and if you don’t, the haze is definitely visible under the new Poliglow - haze with a shine!. But if the haze is removed, the result is excellent - very bright and shiny - and it lasts the whole season. It does require 6 or 7 coats, but dries in minutes, so I just go around the boat (with a leather-like rag on a stick) that many times - it takes about 10 minutes to go around once (a 35’ hull). Routinely get comments about how good it looks, and it’s still very bright the following spring when I do it again. Cat's Paw is kept on jack stands for the winter but spends the entire summer on a mooring (Buzzards Bay is salt water), so plenty of sun and salt air. Despite the many critics, I’ll keep using it.
