Once you are done with this step, you will want to seal your freshly
polished finish by using a wax with the HIGHEST carnuba content you can
find.Several brands sell stuff that is 100% carnuba.It may not be the
easiest to use but it works best for UV protection.


Is there any documentation for carnuba's UV and moisture protection on gel
coat?

Might be biased ( ;-) ) , but check the WxBlock website----I thinhk
they published a comparison betw WxBlock and Carnuba a few years ago. Wx
Block did much better.
Many of the newer products have UV blockers added in.
