Jay, I used it for the first time last year and liked it. There are a couple of rules.
First, the hull needs to be warm. I've read 55 degrees and 70 degrees.
2, you need to use the PolyPrep to take off the old wax and dirt. Otherwise you just end up with shiny dirt.
3, the big trick is more than one coat. I did 3 and it was beautiful. I know guys who have done 8! Unlike wax, PolyGlo fills in the minute scratches in the gel coat.
If you Google PolyGlo there are a number of sites that talk about the application and specifically the sagging problem.
