{"product_id":"formula-five-clean-n-glaze","title":"Formula Five Clean 'N Glaze - Mold Polishing Compound \u0026 Gelcoat Oxidation Remover","description":"\u003cp\u003eClean 'N Glaze is the maintenance step in Rexco's Formula Five mold care system. It is a mild buffing compound, deliberately not a cutting compound, so it polishes surface build-up, fine scratch marks and hazing off a production mold or plug without cutting into the finish, and leaves a hard, high gloss base for the release wax to key to. The same bottle pulls chalky oxidation off gel coat, which is why it lives on boats as often as it does in mold shops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bs-spec-block\"\u003e\n\u003c!--bs-body-v1--\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"bs-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emild buffing compound and glaze, cleans and polishes in one step\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRemoves\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003esurface build-up and residue, fine scratch marks, hazing, chalking and oxidation on gel coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eUse on\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efiberglass molds and plugs, gel coated boats and tubs, cultured marble, solid surface, plated metal and stainless, rubber rub rails\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eNot for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eplaster, wood and other high porosity surfaces, automotive paint, clear plastic, decals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCoverage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eone quart buffs roughly a 40 ft (12 m) boat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eApply with\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eclean cloth or pad by hand, or a power buffer with a lambswool, wool blend, terry or cotton pad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eContains\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003esilicone and petroleum distillates.

Work out of direct sun, 2 to 4 sq ft (0.25 to 0.5 m2) at a time, with a coin sized dab per square foot. Wet buff, turning the applicator often, until the surface polishes up dry and glossy. Heavily chalked gel coat may need 600 to 800 grit wet sanding first. A power buffer is faster but it can burn the surface or cut through an edge, so keep it moving and ease off on corners and hard lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean 'N Glaze contains silicone, so it leaves protection behind on gel coat, and it is the wrong product anywhere a repair, paint or bond is coming next.
