As the title states, what do you use to clean/polish up fiberglass boats.. The ones you post always look so shiny.

I try to buy nice stuff that doesn't need too much polish, but the ones that do get wet sanded, then cutting compound, then polish, and finished with wax. I use a local company called Show Car Products. They are out of Grant. They make all their products.

That does make a big difference. I want to clean up my Stratus. The white has some ‘Coosa River Red’ staining on the sides I would love to get rid of.
Thanks

For that, they make a fiberglass cleaner, but I just use alumabright. It won't hurt it. Spray it on, rinse it off.

Never knew you could use alumabright on fiberglass. I guess it works just like it does on aluminum?

Yes. It also does a great job on black mercury motors that have that white scaley look (I guess hard water) usually around the trim motors.

I'm getting my old boat ready to sell and I just pressure washed the carpet in it. Looks like it did the day I got finished putting the carpet in. I used de-greaser that I sprayed on it with a pump up sprayer. One disclaimer.... We've got a heated pressure washer, so I'm sure that helped.

Exactly what I do, except I don't have heat. At the end, flush it with the water hose with no nozzle. While you're doing that, brush against the nap with a stiff brush. It will make the carpet stand up like factory.
