Poli Glow Gives You A Gloss That's Boss!
Looking to achieve superior color, shine, and protection for your dull, faded, or oxidized Boat or RV?
Poli Glow® is an easy-application, hydrophobic boat polish that prevents oxidation and makes your boat shine like new.
25 years ago, our founder asked a simple question:
Is there a better way to prevent fading and restore shine to boats than boat wax?
After years of experimenting in his Florida backyard, he eventually developed the proprietary formula for Poli Glow®.
The water-based acrylic polymer binds to the gelcoat on your fiberglass surface to create a durable, glossy finish.
Unlike waxing, you don’t have to use buffers—just wipe it on with the Poli-Mitt™ Applicator and let it dry. Even better, Poli Glow® lasts for years with proper maintenance instead of becoming cloudy and faded after only a few months.
For over 25 years, Poli Glow® has been sealing and protecting boats all over the world, keeping them looking glossy and new.

If this is your first time using Poli Glow®, we strongly recommend you purchase our Poli Glow® Deluxe Kit.. Older boats have accumulated oxidation that must be removed before you apply Poli Glow®.
The Deluxe Kit includes everything you need for your first application.
When to purchase an individual bottle of Poli Glow®:
- If you purchased a Poli Glow® Deluxe Kit and your boat is longer than 28 feet/larger than 350 square feet of surface to cover.
- If you ran out of Poli Glow® because your gelcoat was highly oxidized and absorbed more product than usual.
- If it is time for a maintenance application (please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide)
- If you need to touch up some scuffed areas (please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide)
For first time applications, you must remove any oxidation by preparing the surface with Poli Prep™ and Poli Ox™.
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™.
General application instructions:
- Do not apply in the rain or on windy days
- Avoid direct sunlight if possible
- Ambient temperature should be between 65 and 90 degrees fahrenheit
- Low to mid humidity—high humidity may cause the product to streak if doesn’t dry properly
- Keep out of rain for 48 hours after application
Application steps:
- Moisten the Poli-Mitt Applicator™ with water and wring it out so that it is damp and not soaked.
- Shake well, and drizzle several lines of Poli Glow® onto the Poli-Mitt Applicator™. Wring gently to evenly distribute the Poli Glow®. Do not soak the mitt.
- Apply Poli Glow® in vertical or horizontal strokes (not circles) and work in four to six foot sections.
- Poli Glow® should be applied in thin coats, allowing several minutes for each coat to dry in between applications. Apply the next coat when the surface is not tachy and doesn’t feel wet, about 1-2 minutes.
- Allow to cure for 48 hours.
The recommended number of coats of Poli Glow® to apply depends on the UV index where you live. In general, you will need at least 6-8 coats for a first-time application.
Please refer to the Poli Glow® Application and Maintenance Guide for detailed guidance.
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.
