Evidently, the prior thread with a reply from poliglow was between a
poster and a retailer, not the company. This is what I got from the
company:

CHECK WITH AWLGRIP ITSELF TO SEE WHAT THEY APPLY TO THEIR PAINTS, OR
WEST MARINE, BOAT US MAY HAVE SOMETHING TOO.

Hi, Todd, and thanks for the bounceback.
Given that only the cabintop not-nonskid areas are that way, now, what
would you suggest for all the awlgrip currently present?
As many as have raved over the perfect gloss results of properly
applied PoliGlow, that's very disappointing news, but I'd like to get a
better look than I have now...
Thanks again for the info.

SKIP,
POLI GLOW WOULD REALLY BE IDEAL FOR AWLGRIP THAT IS OLDER THAN YOURS.
SAY MAYBE IN THE 7-10 YEAR RANGE.
THANK YOU.

Hi...
There's an extensive thread in rec.boats.cruising, and one developing
in the morgan mailing lists, about Poliglow.
I understand from reading a reply from your tech support to another
sailor that older gelcoat is ideal for this product.
What would you recommend for relatively (2-5 years) recent, and a
section of new (1 year) properly applied awl-grip?
We've got probably 400SF or slightly more, certainly more if we include
the topsides slick areas (not nonskid), to cover, and the boat's just
finishing an extensive refit. We'd like to use this product if it's
appropriate, as all reviews suggest that it's easy to maintain and
gives a stunning appearance to gelcoat...
Thanks.
