Best product for fiberglass for gloss and UV protection?

[ES]

Hi, did a few searches for this but haven't really found a conclusive thread. I have a 2010 210 SANTE and I am looking for a non-aggressive product to maintain hull gloss and protect from UV.
Boat sits in a boat house where there is enough protection from the sun on the port side, but not the starboard, so ideally I am looking for a product that would protect the boat from UV, in order to prevent discoloration on one side.
A friend of mine swears by 3M products. Wondering what other Nautique owners use in similar conditions...

Either 3M or Meguiar's Flagship. I've been using Flagship as of late, and it's great.

After looking on this forum, I have tried Bow to Stern. I have applied it once 2 weeks ago, and it made the boat hull look like a mirror. Will have to see how it holds up.

It doesn't hold up that long in my experience. Hope your luck with it is better.

Aerospace 303, I have used it for years and love it.

Applied the Bow to Stern today. Boat looks great and it didn't take that long. I hope it holds up. It was certainly cheaper than the $230 the local car wash wanted for a detail.

Bow to stern has been doing good for me.

Or you could try this. Costs a little more, but it works great.

Another happy Bow to Stern user here!

touchlesscovers.com Been a few years, but I think around $4,300 installed, tax etc. I love it. Our lake doesn't allow enclosed docks but this gives us the same advantage. Opens/closes with a remote control.

I called Meguiar's before using any of their wax when our 2002 Ski Nautique was new. Because the finish was new, they recommended a car wax. It's less aggresive than their boat wax.

Currently, I'm using their NXT Tech Wax 2.0. It's about $18.00 a bottle. Very easy to apply and remove and it repells water exceptionally well. The boat is used exclusively in salt water and the gel coat still looks superb.

It's stored outside with a Sunbrella cover but we had two Sunbrella side skirts sewn into it. That's our UV protection.

I don't know if the NXT Tech Wax 2.0 offers UV protection.

I spray mine with a light mist of Babes boat bright before I wipe it down after every use. After 6 years the hull looks like new. Mine also catches the evening sun on one side.

+1 on Babe's Boat Bright. Their Seat Soap and Seat Saver are nice too. http://www.babesboats.com/

I have heard Boat Bling's Sauce is similar but have been so happy with Babe's that I stopped looking at other products. http://www.milleniummarineproducts.c...es/Boat-Bling/

Call Tom at liquid audio sounds. They manufacturer the Ultimate boat cover. Less expensive and great customer service. Not having a tight cover really aids in drying out the boat between uses. Having to only hit one button to cover or uncover the boat is awfully covenient as well.
