Your boat is now looking
showroom new and ready for
another year on the water.
You have put in a lot of hard
work — and it shows. But
how are you going to keep it
looking good?
While it may be tempting
to simply grab a can of wax
at the auto parts store, resist
that temptation. Automotive
waxes are good for what they
were designed for — your car
or truck — but they are not
formulated to work like
marine protectors. Using the
right product for the job
delivers fast, professional-
looking results.
Marine products tend to
be a little more expensive,
but consider what you paid
for your boat. Your boat is
an investment, and it
deserves the right products.
When it comes to protecting
your boat, you want the best
products available.
Fiberglass/Gelcoat
Protection
There has never been a
marine wax quite like
this before. 3M’s new
Scotchgard™ Marine Liquid
Wax is formulated to provide
an exceptionally high gloss
with unmatched durability
that lasts and lasts. The
unique chemistry provides
protection from the sun’s
damaging ultraviolet rays,
and is safe to use on fiber-
glass/gelcoat, marine top-
side plants, painted alu-
minum and marine metal
parts. The special formula-
tion uses reactive chemistry,
which actually bonds to the
boat’s surface. Scotchgard™
Marine Liquid Wax has a
pleasant tropical scent.
3M™ Marine Liquid Wax
is easy to apply and is
designed to give your boat’s
surface a high-gloss shine.
3M™ Marine Liquid Wax
also leaves a protective coat-
ing. This wax has a unique
formula that chemically
bonds to your boat’s surface
and retards UV damage.
Traditional paste wax is
difficult to apply and wipe
off, but the coat it leaves
behind is worth the extra
work. 3M™ Marine Ultra
Performance Paste Wax con-
tains easy-to-apply wax poly-
mers that provide immediate
and long-lasting water repel-
lency. The result is a high-
gloss protective finish that
retards oxidation and sun-
light damage.
