Aurora Sure Step for non skid surfaces. It protects and makes your feet stick instead of slipping like regular wax will. I have used it for years on my offshore boat. Helps protect from dried blood too.
I was my boat every spring and fall with 3M Cleaner Wax and a buffer I got at Harbor Freight for $27. Keeps her looking great for a long time.
I always use a boat soap, or a soap for fiberglass surfaces. If you use dish soap or anything with a degreaser, it can strip the gloss off of your gelcoat and it will strip any wax off of it also. I agree with Magic Eraser also. It keeps the seats clean and shiny. It takes any black streaks off of the gelcoat too.
Use a brush on gelcoat but use something soft like a soft brush or rag on the slick surfaces. It helps keep the gelcoat shiny longer.
Don't forget to wax the outboard surfaces also. It keeps the salt from sticking.
