Paul, I've used a product several seasons now with great results called "Fiberglass Oxidation Remover & Color Restorer" made by Protect All. It performs best when applied & polished by buffer. The 1st time I applied this was by hand and it didn't turn out as good as when I used the buffer. Really does a great job. Allow some time to do a thorough job and work the buffer on edge to get the hard to reach areas. I usually polish twice a year. Water beads up, color looks good, no white-ish haze. Their website is http://protectall.com/ProtectAll/ or 1.800.322.491 Usual disclaimers just a happy customer. Dave C. Cheers, Dave C.
