That will get you a few inches further in life but nothing from Thor. Gelcoat is gelcoat. Boats, motorhomes and everything else made if it will suffer this fading. People (not necessarily you) do not maintain this product as the should, then 2-3 years later the white streaking starts and they freak out. Best solution is a very light pressure wet-sand with 600+ grit followed with a buffing compound, then a quality polish/sealer...then keep it sealed. Simply polishing the faded, dried out chalky surface will only last a few weeks...you can't polish a turd.
