G'day all
I spent a fair while yesterday giving the floor area, which is textured fibreglass a good clean yesterday. It came up well but wondering if there's something that would seal the floor to some degree so that it's easier to clean.
I found this one http://www.starbrite.com/item/non-skid-deck-cleaner-with-ptef?category_id=537
Any experiences with this or other products for cleaning and or sealing textured fibreglass decks?
Cheers
Rod

The Starbrite non-skid cleaner is all I use. Cleans very well. It's not a sealant though. Poliglow is the only sealant I know for fibreglass. Dulon also make a non-skid polish called restructure marine polish which I understand does attempt to seal the fibreglass. Woody's wax also gets favourable reviews for non-skid, but is exxy.

G'day
Thanks for the entertainment RayLamp
Thanks for the info juggernaut.
I'm gunna give the star brite stuff a go to maintain it now its clean and hopefully their claim that is seals is true to some degree
By the way I used napisan to clean the floor after a friend recommended it, came up good and I think it's safe but do wonder if there are any possible negative consequences.

I suspect napisan would also strip wax and polish due to its nature.

I reckon that would be correct, I did the gunnels as well but polished them after. Got the stuff for the floor and will give it a go on the weekend but it will take a while to access the result
