Cool Need a good boat wax; captains exhaust

hey is there a wax that anyone could recommend to me to use? Im wanting a real good wax for boats, and houseboats!
I thought i would check here first!

Does anyone have any suggestions also, on how to keep a captains exhaust from turning, or changing colors?

open for suggestions!

OffShoreOnly.com Boatshield $16.95 for a 12oz. bottle. It works awesome, I'm a big skeptic on new wax products and this was no exception. I tried it out on my truck and was very impressed. I normally use zymol but I have found that although the shine is great the carnuba formula in zymol tends to only last about a week and one wash before it is almost gone!!! With the Boat Shield it has held up through 3 washes already with no difference in appearance or slickness to touch.

It works on fiberglass/gelcoat/chrome/painted surfaces. Give it a try, I think you will find you are impressed. I was so impressed with the OffshoreOnly.com line that I picked up a distributorship for them. If you have any questions feel free to email me.

I've about tried them all.

Waxing Frenzy is the best !!!! If you look on the other site, speedwake; they all rave about it there. Plus the fact that just about EVERY race boat team swears by it.

Yea, what Bill R said. I use Waxing Frenzy on everything from boats to cars. Their products really work, love the Shark Tower for metal parts, and the interior for vinyl and leather. Jeff Jassby

I'm with Dyno on this one. Starbrite Teflon Polish and Boatshield. The Frenzy Wax just doesn't last that long. I tried Frenzy on one side of my boat and the Teflon Polish on the other and Boatshield on the top. (358 Sonic).
One month later, the Frenzy is gone, no beading and/or sheating. The other side with the Teflon is beading in some spots, and still sheating.
The boatshield on top still beads, and is slick as ****. ( In fairness, I do have a full cover on the boat during the week). Bottom line, after all the hype on the Waxing Frenzy is just hype. Yes, it does go on and off easy but it doesn't last. I would rather wax my boat once a month with Boatshield or Teflon than every two weeks with Waxing Frenzy.

i agree with this!! used Frenzy once. i will be going back to the starbrite with teflon. I also have the boat shield too, but haven't had the chance to try it yet.

I have to agree with Thunder32 - I normally use Starbrite teflon and I tried frenzy. Yes, frenzy went on fast and came off easy but didn't last very long at all. I went back to my starbrite teflon wax and have seen a vast improvement in my gelcoat and imron paint finish. Comes off a little harder than frenzy but lasts longer and is 1/2 the price.

Hey Powerguy,
try the boatshield also. (same guys that sell the cleaning wipes) It's a polymer, and it also lasts, but be careful on the bow....it is slick.
