Been there, done that Kathy.
Most all my boats have required serious rescue to get em looking good.
If the "hazy finish is a consistent color I wouldscrub off all the old
oxidation to a consistent dull color using a non abrasive cleaner with
a product called TLC with a blue #3, scrubby pad. Then topcoat with a
polymer called Poli - Glo and it'll shine like new..This will not
restore color but if all the same tone after scrubbed down will restore
a maintence free shine.. tom


I'd go slowly with this advice. Poli-Glo and other polymers will eventually
peel when exposed to UV. Then it's a job to get it off. Buffing out the
gel is the safest and best method. I'm not a fan of polymer overcoatings.
