[C320-list] Hull cleaning and waxing tips

[hcreech at comcast.net]

Mike, 
Someone on the list suggested Meguiar's Products last year. Prior to that I was using Collinite 920 and Fleet Wax, now as a result of that suggestion I am using Meguiar's 
Color Restorer and Polish(2 separate products), followed by Fleet wax. At the end of the season my hull has never looked better. Rubbing compound may be necessary because of oxidation, but you might try a sample area with these products first and see how well it works.

Hello all, 
I'm looking to do a full hull cleaning and waxing, and by the look of the gelcoat it hasn't been done in a quite a while. I'm thinking of a full wash, then acetone wipe down, followed by rubbing compound and then wax. I'll use a electric buffer, but it still this sounds like a big job. Just writing this is making me feel tried already. 
Any tips or tricks would be appreciated, also any recommendations for wax and rubbing compound.
