I just asked the wax guy at my yard about stripping the wax before
launch so I could put on Poli Glo in the water. He didn't want to do
it.

A pretty clear picture is emerging, 100% of people who make there
living waxing boats say the Poli Glo and similar products will turn
into an alligator mess in a few years that will cost a fortune to
remove. So far, 100% of users reporting say it's great. Do I smell a
conspiracy?

Once assured that I just want a holding action to slow or halt further
deterioration of my topside and am not trying to have the finish
restored, he agreed to throw on a coat of wax. I'll probably go that
route this year just because of the time and hassle factor.

Answering my own question, and changing the topic, as there's more
heat
than light now, in the original:

SKIP,

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

THANK YOU.

So, I'm stuck. I'm waiting for a response from them as to what else
might be appropriate - but solicit opinion from experienced
glass-look-achievers WRT Awl-Gripped surfaces' treatment.

Thanks, as always...

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely
nothing-half so much worth doing as simply messing,
messing-about-in-boats; messing about in boats-or *with* boats.
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter,
that's the charm of it.
Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at
your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you
never
get anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything
in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to
do, and you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."
