Grunt is from the same company, basically its the second stage of the three , with the three you get a cleaner a restorer and a polish, the Grunt is the restorer part you could use any car polish and cleaner instead of 1 and 3 I suppose.

I think you will be happy with the outcome, this stuff works before your eyes my boat was near cream colour because of lack of cleaning and polishing, i had heard of this magic stuff bun never bought it, but as It happened i won an online compand won the range of boat buddy cleaners,and had it delivered to my door by the company director,he applied this stuff to a sample patch on the boat and while talking to him the patch turned snow white in minutes totally amazed by it. And no I dont get any more free products for saying this. Good luck with it

I have a few before and afters myself will try dig some out. It's going to be like new.the restorer part 2 is like a gel put it on with a big soft paint brush very handy to apply as it sticks and dont run off the hull.

that I cant answer eddie but if anything to go by my boat still looks snow white will be giving it a washdown and a bit of polish over next few weeks thats about it, I wont be using the part 2 restorer for another while.this stuff isnt corrosive if thats what you mean, I think you could drink it if you wanted without any risks but I wouldnt advise it :wink:
