Shurhold Gel-Coat/Fiberglass Compounds
Shurhold Gel-Coat and Fiberglass Restoration Compounds
When marine gelcoat surfaces turn dull, chalky, and oxidized from exposure to UV rays, salt, and environmental elements, Shurhold offers a proven system for bringing back that original deep lustrous finish. The company's gel-coat and fiberglass compounds have earned recognition among boat owners and marine professionals for their ability to tackle everything from minor surface oxidation to heavily weathered fiberglass that needs serious reconditioning.
The Buff Magic Difference
Shurhold's Buff Magic is a fiberglass reconditioner and deoxidizer formulated to be user-friendly, whether buffing by machine or hand. This award-winning compound removes heavy oxidation, hard water spots, and surface stains while restoring color and gloss to gelcoat surfaces. Users apply small amounts of Buff Magic Compound to workable 2' x 2' sections of the hull, deck or topside, making it manageable for DIY restoration projects. The product works effectively with Shurhold's line of rotary and dual-action polishers, though it can also be applied by hand for smaller jobs or touch-up work.
Pro Polish for Long-Term Protection
After compounding removes oxidation and restores the gelcoat surface, Shurhold's Pro Polish provides the protective layer that prevents future deterioration. Pro Polish is a polymer based formula with cosmetic grade ingredients and contains no fillers or talc. It provides a hard, durable finish with exceptional water-beading properties and UV resistance. Unlike traditional waxes that require frequent reapplication, this sealant and polish combination offers extended protection against sun, salt, acid rain, and harsh marine environments. Shurhold's Pro Polish also can be used on gel coat to maintain its luster.
Complete Marine Surface Care System
What sets Shurhold apart in the gelcoat restoration category is the company's integrated approach to marine surface care. Their compounds work seamlessly with their range of polishers, from professional-grade rotary models to more accessible dual-action units. Shurhold offers a Clean-N-Simple Tip to quickly restore gelcoat to its original deep lustrous color and velvety slick finish. The straightforward application process—using parallel motions rather than circular patterns and letting the machine's weight do the work—makes professional-quality results achievable for boat owners who want to preserve their vessel's appearance without hiring detailing services.
Whether you're addressing light oxidation on a well-maintained boat or tackling years of neglect on a weathered hull, Shurhold's gel-coat and fiberglass compounds deliver the cutting power and protective finish needed to restore and preserve marine gelcoat surfaces.
