MARINE POLYTROL

gb-marine-polytrol

Gelcoat and surface restorer

MARINE POLYTROL is a penetrating oil, which does not contain any waxes or silicones. Quick and simple to use, it is the easy way to restore colour in just a few minutes to any surface dulled and faded by the weather e.g. gelcoat, plastic, paint, varnish. MARINE POLYTROL penetrates the surface, re-wetting the pigments so restoring look of the finish to its original colour and lustre.
Restoring the shine to dull and oxidised metals without the need for polishing, MARINE POLYTROL provides a tough, long lasting, waterproof, flexible finish and corrosion protection on metals.
Resin rich MARINE POLYTROL eliminates the need for waxes and polishes that are complicated and tedious to apply.
