Dont waste your money on topcoat.
I routinely wash my boat when I travel out of town. But it gets used a bunch at Alan Henry and goes into storage without wiping it down.
Fished J.B. Thomas a few weeks ago and my buddy was wiping his boat down with Boat Blings Hot Sauce.
He sprayed on a small section of my boat and wiped down. Looked great, but figured I could do the same at the car wash. So went to car wash and cleaned entire boat and wiped dry. I got home and it was extremely obvious where he used the hot sauce. I sprayed and wiped down the entire exterior with Top Coat. Couldnt tell I did a thing and again the spot he wiped down with hot sauce was still extremely obvious. I ordered some that night.
I cant compare it to any of the other products though.

Fish can't tell a dirty boat. Unless its a mess leave it alone dirt adds UV blocker LOL.

I use half water and half vinegar +1 Incredibly simple. Incredibly effective. Incredibly cheap. Water and vinegar will strip the wax from the hull. I use it after fishing squaw creek or texoma and want that grime off the boat. BBS and the other products listed offer protection you wont get from water and vinegar, simple green or any other degreaser. Water and vinegar is great for removing hard water spots from the engine. I only mention this because it was only a few months ago you were posting that this was your first boat. Thank you for that. I wasnt aware. I dont wipe down after every trip. Maybe once every week to week and a half. If im gonna be out fishing 3 out of 5 days Im not gonna bother making her sparkle after every time out. Does a product like BBS replace what vinegar water may have stripped?
If you can't find em wind em.

Bass Boat Saver. Mist a little on & wipe off with a damp rag. Done! Looks clean & shiny and your wax job lasts way longer.

Boat Bling Hot Sauce. Its quick, takes less than 5 minutes on my 20ft boat. Spray it on a wet or dry boat and wipe it down, thats all.

I've used them all.. best I have found for my 2001 206 Champion (which is black) so all streaks show is a product called F11 from TopCoat. IMO it cannot be beat. Yoi can apply it to most all surfaces including rubber, glass, and plastics... Try it,, You wont use anything else.. on facebook as topcoat.store

X-whatever for Lucas Slick mist.
I used to use vinegar/water but over time it caused rust on my trolling motor bracket. I was getting overspray in an area I didn't/couldn't wipe with the motor stowed. In a matter of a year or so the paint was flaking and rust spots were all over.

Do any of those sprays leave a haze that you have to wiped off?
I've noticed no haze with the Hot Sauce. Just spray it on and wipe it off.
