Favorite hull cleaner/wax
Time to wash and wax the hull. What's your favorite product for cleaning the hull? What's your favorite wax? I sail the Chesapeake Bay.

Not going to do a compound before the wax? I know it adds an extra step, but man does it make a difference.

I use the Meguiar's one-step compound and wax you can buy from any automotive store.
