Did this stuff do what it claims? Has anyone used other products that
were successful with faded gelcoat?

If it's light and as a finish coat for the Oxidation Remover.

Test it. Find the worst looking, abandoned hulk in any boatyard in the
back. Do a 12" circle on TOP of the cabin gelcoat where the sun just ate
it, using just the oxidation remover. It's simply amazing how it shines.

Sneak in when they're closed and do the whole hull after dark. Drop by a
few days later and ask 'em what happened to the "Jolly Bee" in the
dump....??....(c;

If you use a power polisher do it VERY LIGHTLY with either of these
products. They EAT the surface and restore the real gelcoat. Too much
and you'll eat your way right through it! Not sure about real cheap
boats...caveat emptor and don't blame me.

Someone gave me a little Sunfish sailboat. It sat for a decade outside
in the sun cooking. It was white powder. After McGuire's above, it was
shinier than a brand new one at the dock! Amazing.... McGuires didn't
cure the hull leaks, though...another story.

AutoZone and other car parts places has it cheaper....Just don't let the
snobs at the dock know where you got it.
