I was just wondering what type of wax everyone is using on there decks and sides? I just had my 2000 outlaw buffed to bring the true colors back on the deck and want to keep it that way. I haven't found a good boat wax yet, so any input would be appreciated.

Mequires "Flag Ship"
It is the best I have found.
At a recent poker run, a professional detailer saw me using it and commented that it was the best on the market.
About $15.00 per bottle at West Marine.

I use Meguires 3 step process (cleaner, polish, wax) then hit it with a cote of Diamond 55. I got it from the guy who details my Dad's stuff. I see it at alot of detail shops.
I alos heard Prowax is very good.
That 3 step deal from Meguires though is pretty tight....

Meguires is the chit! I've used it on vehicles for years with pleasing results and their flagship, like dock uses, is great for boats!
I also really like Collenite's waxes. That stuff goes on easy, buffs out with little effort and will keep its shine and keeping beading for well over a year, although I wax a lot more often than that.

Good question Johnny!
I waxed with good old turtle wax and only had her out three times and it has already dulled.
I am going to try that Flag Ship stuff!
I sure am getting a wicked muscle it my right arm from all the waxing and buffing on my girl.
