What is a good coating to put on a textured PVC/fiberglass deck to prevent oxidation?

Question

It's a Hurricane Fun Deck

Answer 1

Try a 3M Finnesse it or similar prodict and followed with a good quality wax.  Be sure it has UV inhibitors.

Answer 2

Your gelcoat is oxidizing, which is normal, but preventable. Finesse-It may not be a heavy/abrasive enough compound to remove the oxidation; if it doesn't work by itself, try starting with 3M Super Duty first. Then move back to a finer compound like Finesse-it. Just remember, you'll need to coat it with several layers of wax to protect it... but lots of wax on a deck is never a good idea. You'll end up busting your @ss over and over.

Answer 3

this sounds like the epoxy hasnt been mixed properly. Sand the deck back to the glass matting and re-coat ? Is the boat still under any sort of warranty? this sounds like a major build problem.

Answer 4

PVC dos not oxidize.

You must be fishing for some libs to show there stupidity so I may have tangled your line. maybe global warming will take it out father to bring in the tuna brains of the left.

Answer 5

gelcoating is the best you will ever find.

That is expensive I know.

So get a few cans of clearcoat for it.

I'd say 4-5 should do the trick.

Simply spray it on - let it dry overnight, toss back in the water
