PoliGlow = Acrylic Floor Wax
 
This **** is acrylic FLOOR WAX - was it Johnson FUTURE ?? - remove it
easily with ammonia after you've figured out it doesn't work for more
that a few weeks. The shisters tried selling it as RV polish for some
years - off looking for other suckers these days. There's no wax in
it.

At the Toronto Boat Show, 17 Jan, I found the following "new product" and
reasonable in cost!
PoliGlow gives "old fiberglass" again the new "wet look". It's not a wax.
PoliGlow according to their brochure rates #1 with Practical Sailor and
Powerboat Reports.
It was first produced in Miami, FL in 1991.

Any comments and/or experiences from the real world?

No, "polymer" is a generic term including molecules of at least 100 carbons.
Silicone is an element in the periodic table.

Anyone know if polymer and silicone are the same thing?

I did a fast search on Google, didn't find the answer. I'll go back and
read more.

I'm suspicious though. I sure would find out if I was going to use it.
The shelves are full of things make your dull finish shine that
contain silicone.

As always, I reserve the right to be wrong.

It says in the post below and I quote:

"Poli Glow is a water based acrylic polymer "

According to you that's the same as silicone??

Silcone comes from the Horta and other S-based lifeforms.
Look it up!

silicon and silicone are two different things.

Examples of silicons: Pyramid scams, penis enlargement pumps, George Bush and
the war in Iraq.
