Maxprop, my boat is also Awlgripped. It was done in USA before I

over here but Awlgrip is not heard of here although there are probably
similar products sold under different names.
Anyway, it is a lovely white finish but after the winter layup she needs
cleaning off and waxing-or something.
What US Paint product do you use?


You can put wax on Awlgrip. Clean it well first, but don't use abrasive.
Actually you could probably use a very fine abrasive polish (Awlgrip is
just a 2 part LPU paint, hard finish) but unless the finish is very old
& yukked up, you shouldn't need to.

Almost any car wax will do, although IMHO the best marine wax is a 3M
product called "Marine Wax" (those crazy guys).

Our O'Day 27 was Awlgrip...we just used TurtleWax on it...
