[QUOTE="SID297, post: 16444648, member: 8858"] I thought would be fun to see what everyone else was using. I just tried waxing my current boat for the first time. It had a little light oxidation in the parts of the boat that get the most sun (brow and toe rails mostly), but nothing crazy. I tried three different waxes (2 of which I already had on hand). The worst was Attwood Cleaner wax. It was way too thin and didn't seem to create much shine. Middle of the road was Meguiar Flagship Premium Cleaner/Wax. It has just enough compound in it to cut light oxidation and created a pretty good shine. It also is thick enough to cling to the surface decently. It would probably best be used on a boat that gets quarterly wax jobs.
