I'll throw another into the mix....

Brake Bonding Glue...

My dad and I coated his DB with the stuff. Seems to have held up pretty good... but then again, the boat spends most of the time propped up against the garage...

anyone else ever use this stuff?

IM refinishing my db w/gluv-it now, its expensive stuff, but from what I've heard it does a better job. Will find out soon.

What is wrong with just another coat of 'gel-coat'?? Rough sand and roll it on... I did this, but this subject has come up several times and nobody has ever suggested fiberglass gel coat.. That's what mfgr uses.. confused

Coat It... Graphite in the mix, easy application (squeegee) and holds up great.

Too sticky Periwinkle ... doesn't slide as well as either coat-it or gluv-it. Coat it for me, especially on a used application. Seems to do better with less surface prep and also cures much better if you're going to do your boat anytime but summer. Cheaper too:)
