Imagine your beloved yacht, once the brightest star on the water, now dulled by unsightly oxidation and stains. This common issue plagues every boat owner, but Marine 31 Gel Coat Heavy-Cut Cleaner Wax offers a solution to restore your vessel’s original luster.

Unlike standard cleaning waxes, Marine 31 Gel Coat Heavy-Cut Cleaner Wax is specifically formulated to tackle severe oxidation and stains. Combining cleaning, polishing, and protection in one step, it works effectively on both standard gel coat and painted surfaces.

The product was developed by Captain Max, founder of Marine 31, who recognized boat owners’ frustrations with existing solutions. Many cleaners removed oxidation but left behind scratches or haze. His solution incorporates advanced micro-abrasives to gently eliminate oxidation without damaging the gel coat, along with nourishing oils to prevent drying and cracking. A durable wax layer provides long-term protection against UV rays, saltwater, and other environmental factors.

• Powerful Cleaning: Advanced micro-abrasives and proprietary cleaners remove moderate to heavy oxidation and stains.
• Gentle Formula: Avoids scratches or haze, leaving surfaces smooth.
• Nourishing Protection: Enriched with oils to moisturize the gel coat and a wax layer for UV and saltwater resistance.
• Easy Application: Simple to apply and remove, without dust or clumping.
• Versatility: Suitable for both gel coat and painted surfaces.
• Eco-Friendly: Safe for marine environments.

For optimal results:

1. Preparation: Ensure the surface is cool and out of direct sunlight. Shake the product well before use.
2. Application: Apply an "X" pattern of the product onto a foam cutting pad attached to a dual-action or rotary polisher, then spread evenly over a 2' x 2' area.
3. Polishing:
   • Dual-action/random orbital polisher: Set speed to 5,000–6,000 OPM.
   • Rotary polisher: Set speed to 1,200–1,500 RPM.
   Polish until the product turns transparent.
4. Wipe Down: Remove residue with a clean microfiber towel.
5. Maintenance: For sustained shine and protection, periodically use Marine 31 Gel Coat Spray Wax Plus.

The type of pad affects results:

• Foam pads: Ideal for dual-action polishers, offering gentle oxidation removal and a glossy finish.
• Wool pads: Best for rotary polishers to tackle heavy oxidation, though they require more skill.

Pre-treat new pads with Marine 31 Spray Polishing Pad Conditioner to enhance performance and longevity.

Constant exposure to sunlight, saltwater, and pollutants leads to oxidation, discoloration, and stains, which diminish aesthetics and resale value. Regular cleaning and waxing:

• Prevent oxidation by removing degraded layers and forming a protective barrier.
• Eliminate stains from hard water, algae, or bird droppings that can corrode the gel coat.
• Strengthen the gel coat’s ability to repel moisture, extending its lifespan.
• Enhance the vessel’s market value.

Marine 31 Gel Coat Heavy-Cut Cleaner Wax delivers efficient oxidation removal and lasting protection, saving time and effort while preserving your boat’s appearance. Its balanced formulation ensures professional-grade results without compromising surface integrity.
