Not to PoliGlow

We will never use PolyGlow again. Looked great for one year then started to flake off.

We have at least 100+ hours in stripping over two years and still can't get it off. Used Red Devil floor stripper, PolyStrip, wet/dry sand paper, razor blade, Sun UV + time. I was warned in advance. What a nightmare.

PolyGlow must have many complaints. They sent us 6 $10 cans of PolyStrip for free with shipping. Just smears around and very slowly removes sometimes.

I had the same bad experience as Victor. It is very hard to remove, I used one full can of Polistrip just in the raccoon black stripe and I still have residual poliglow.
My short answer is not to Poliglow

I'm sure you have seen Erik's X. Does the newglass 2 look like something you would try after your experience with the polyglow?

I do have the Fleet Wax on 'boat' but recently I have used the collonite fiberglass cleaner to shine up a few places - does that mean I must put more fleet wax back on again? (Does the cleaner remove the fleet wax?)
