Patti,
As the owner of a 34 year old sailboat I know a lot about old
fiberglass. The ArmorAll is just filling in the pores and in 48 hours
will be pretty much gone. I've tried every "easy" way there is. My
boat is 33 feet long and 12 feet wide and that's a lot of fiberglass.
The only long term solution to old chalky fiberglass is to re-gelcoat
or paint with a two part epoxy after it's been prepped. Done properly
it will last ten years and give a mirror-like finish. That's the plan
for both my boat and my Westy roof.
