Description
Don't let the name fool you. Revolution is called a cleaner wax — but the protection chemistry inside is a full polymer sealant, not carnauba. That distinction matters. Carnauba begins failing at surface temperatures as low as 105°F. On a boat sitting in the Florida sun, that's before 10 in the morning. Polymer chemistry holds up where carnauba gives out, delivering 3 to 6 months of genuine marine-grade protection from a single application.
Revolution is a three-in-one professional formula: it removes light oxidation, polishes the surface, and seals it with a polymer sealant in one pass. No separate compound step. No separate wax step. One product, one process, one result.
The cream formula is white by design — no dyes, no risk of tinting on light gelcoat, white surfaces, or metals. It works on gel coat, marine paint, and metal surfaces, making it one of the most versatile products in the Starke lineup.
Application is straightforward. A random orbital polisher takes full advantage of Revolution's cleaning and sealing action — the orbital motion works the cleaning agents and polymer into the surface simultaneously while the machine does the heavy lifting. Work in 2×3 foot sections with a foam or microfiber applicator pad. Apply a thin even coat, allow 2 to 5 minutes of dwell time for the chemistry to work, then buff clean.
The use case is clear. If your boat is well-maintained and you're on a quarterly maintenance schedule, or you need a fast professional result on a one-step job — Revolution is the answer. Light oxidation cleaned up, surface polished, polymer protection applied. Done.
Available in 16 oz, 32 oz, and 128 oz.
