What brand detailing products do you use for cleaning/polishing/waxing your boat?
I know a lot of you guys either DIY or have your boat detailed. What brands do you like? What do you use in between waxing or when wiping down your boat?
A quick search didn't produce many results... So I thought a thread about how we take care of our rides would make a lot of sense.
 Not all those who wander are lost.

I use the Lucas speed wax spray after every outing and it works great. Walmart carries it also.

Ive been looking at the same thing now that I have a boat worth washing. I was finding information against waxing, polish instead. Reasoning that the fiberglass did not do well in the sun with wax. I'm not to sure about this info. I had fiberglass vettes that the wax never bothered

About two wks ago I used Merman's. I think he has his stuff listed in the Classified's with a special right now.
It did wonders on my bass boat scratches. I crappie fish. The boat has been out twice since then, and it made my 'crappy boat' look like a bass boat again. Just a little goes a long way. I have heavy oxidation on the stern wings that it didn't take out but the rest of the boat shines like any other good product. In fact, the metal flakes are a bit too bright in the sun - I guess that is a good problem.
I would post some before/after pics but unfortunately, the magical smartphone did a 'poof' and all pics are gone.

Use on boats,cars. I use this on all my vehicles and my boat. Easy on and off and nothing will stick to it. The hull of my boat is white and the water where I fish is always dirty so using this makes it come right off without any scrubbing.

I like the Slick Mist as well. Apply after every trip. Does a great job on scum lines too.

I highly recommend the slick mist by lucas. I use it after I wipe down the boat at ramp.
I use Meguiars premium boat wax 19$ from academy for when I buff it out
