Constantly exposed to UV rays and weather, gelcoat will show its age over time. Fiberglass Reconditioner from Iosso Products is the fountain of youth for boats. In one easy step, it takes a dull and lifeless finish and restores its deep, rich color and high-gloss shine.
Fiberglass Reconditioner removes oxidation, chalking, waterline stain, rust, exhaust, road tar and oil. The protective glossy finish lasts for months—waxing isn't needed. The unique formula doesn't contain silicone, so it won't affect future refinishing.
Few products are as easy to use as Fiberglass Reconditioner. It's applied with a brush or sponge to a 2' to 3' section. Working in an overlapping pattern, the paste is buffed onto the surface until the haze disappears. This can be done by hand or using an electric polisher or buffer.

Iosso Fiberglass Reconditioner is highly effective. A one-pound can will clean and shine a 30' boat from the waterline up and costs $23 USD. For professionals, the one-step product saves time and is available in convenient five-pound pails that retail for $85.45 USD and five-gallons pails for $730 USD.
