What wax do you recommend?

Sealants are polymers linked together., They will last as long as a wax. A acrylic will last as long. You need to make sure your surface is clean and free of oxidation
wfedwar said:But sealants probably won't last as long as Collinite. Plus, most sealants need a base coat like an AIO. Never detailed a boat, but I'd go for Collinite 476S or equivalent.

I've never seen any that will last as long as Collinite 476S. Klasse, the classic acrylic sealant, doesn't stand a chance against 476S.
Hey guys, I was wondering how long, and how many times per year you have to polish your boat(s) with the Collinite stuff....I personally have never heard of it. The only polishes/waxes I know of are: 3M, Zaino, Leverage. Those are the first 3 to come to mind. I'm more familiar with the last one though.

Collinite has a paint cleaner but it's known more for it's wax. You polish when it needs it and wax when it needs it. Time will vary based on conditions and location. At a minimum someone would wax in the beginning of the season and then again at the end.

Honestly, I wouldn't use a wax. I would use what Sea Ray recommends, which is Yacht Brite Pro Polish. This binds with the surface, as opposed to coating the surface to protect it.
