What is Poli Glow®?
Are you a boat or RV owner? You've come to the right place! Learn how to easily protect and restore the shine on your fiberglass boat or RV with Poli Glow® - trusted by customers around the world for over 25 years!
Poli Ox™ is a concentrated cleaning formula that loosens and removes moderate to heavy oxidation from a fiberglass boat.
You know all the stains, dirt, tar, grime, old wax, spray-on ceramics, mold, mildew and chalkiness that accumulates on your boat?
It all starts with a process called “oxidation.”
Heat, moisture, UV radiation from the sun breaks down the compounds in your gelcoat, giving it that tell-tale chalky appearance.
As the gelcoat degrades, dirt and grime are able to penetrate and stain. Colors fade. Mold and mildew begin to accumulate.
This process destroys the glossy shine all new boats have and makes them appear increasingly old and worn.
The good news is you can get that shine back.
Poli Glow® is a proprietary, water-based acrylic formula that binds to the gelcoat on your fiberglass surface to create a durable, glossy finish.
There’s nothing else like it on the market, but before you can apply Poli Glow®, you need to get rid of all the nastiness that’s making your boat look bad in the first place.
That’s where Poli Ox™ comes in. It removes the oxidation and stains to create a clean surface for Poli Glow® to seal and shine.
Poli Ox™ can be used to revive stainless steel, chrome, aluminum, bronze, brass, copper, and even decking and exterior finishes.
Poli Ox™ is safe for use on the following oxidized surfaces:
- Fiberglass
- Gelcoat
- Clear coat
- Metals
- Glass
- Rubber
- Plastic
- Vinyl decals
- Most automotive or fortified paints
Poli Ox™ is not safe for use on the following surfaces:

- Household acrylic and urethane based paints
- Ink printed or silk-screen decals and graphics
- Bottom paint on boats.
For over 25 years, Poli Glow® has been sealing and protecting boats all over the world, keeping them looking glossy and new.

- If you already purchased Poli Glow® but need to remove oxidation and staining from the surface of your boat before you apply it.
- If you purchased a Poli Glow® Deluxe Kit and your boat is longer than 28 feet.
- If your gelcoat was highly oxidized and you need a little extra Poli Ox™.
- IIf you need to touch up some difficult scuffed areas and don’t have Poli Ox™ (please refer to theApplication and Maintenance Guide).
- If you are stripping all the Poli Glow® from your boat (please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide).
Before applying Poli Glow® boat polish, remove any oxidation on your boat’s gelcoat surface with Poli Prep™ and Poli Ox™, depending on the oxidation level.
If this is your first time using Poli Glow®, please consider purchasing the Poli Glow® Deluxe Kit., which has everything you need.
A properly prepared surface should look uniformly dull without color changes or blotches. Some of the colors will still appear bleached or faded until Poli Glow® has been applied.
If you are applying maintenance coats of Poli Glow®, wash and dry the surface first with Poli Wash™. Remove any waxes or spray on ceramics by adding Poli Wash Pro™.
Directions for use:
- Put on disposable gloves to protect your hands.
- Moisten the non-abrasive scrub pad or the ultra fine sanding pad with water and sprinkle Poli Ox™ onto the pad. Gently rub Poli Ox™ into the pad to prevent spillage
- Wet the affected area and scrub with Poli Ox™.
- For heavier stains and oxidation, use the Ultra-Fine Sanding Pad.
- Rinse with water and repeat until the stain or oxidation is removed and the surface looks uniform without blotches.
Use Poli Ox™ in conjunction with Poli Prep™ to prepare your boat's surface for Poli Glow®.
Please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide for detailed guidance.
Maintenance Instructions
At least once per year, wash your boat with Poli Wash™, treat any oxidation spots, and re-apply 3-4 coats of Poli Glow® to maintain your glossy shine.
When Poli Glow® is first applied, it can last up to a year or more in certain
conditions.
However, Poli Glow® was never meant to be a one-time application. Eventually, the Poli Glow® surface will oxidize like any other product or structure left out in the elements (albeit more slowly than alternatives).
The reason to regularly maintain the Poli Glow® finish is to prevent oxidation and the need to do heavier work when it does finally break down.
If maintained properly, Poli Glow® can last five to six years, and the heavier work
can be avoided.
Where you live determines how often you should apply maintenance coats. Boats in tropical climates require more frequent maintenance than boats in temperate ones.
Please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide for detailed guidance.
