Phaethon, the son of the mighty sun god Helios, longed to prove his worth to his father. He begged his father to let him drive the golden sun chariot across the sky for at least one day, believing that by doing so he would show his father that he was worthy of his position and family. Hélios, apprehensive, reluctantly complied with his son's request, and Phaethon took the reins of the chariot. When he went too high, the Earth froze, and when he went too low, the Earth caught fire. A large part of Africa turned into a desert and dried up the surrounding rivers, lakes and seas. The people, their skin turning brown, screamed in agony of terror. Faethón realized the chaos he had caused and tried desperately to control the chariot, but it was too late. The gods watched in horror as the world was consumed by fire and ice. Even Helios himself watched helplessly as his son's arrogance brought ruin to the land. Finally, enraged by the destruction and chaos, Zeus hurled a thunderbolt at the chariot, knocking Phaethon to the ground and sending him free-falling to his death. Phaethon's dead body fell from the sky and landed in the river below. His sisters, devastated by the loss of their beloved brother, mourned his death and their tears turned to amber. They cried so long and imploringly that they finally turned themselves into poplars bordering the river. Even Phaethon's lover, Kyknos, was turned from grief into a swan, forever swimming in the waters of the tragic end of his love. This story is elegantly told through the symbolism of a wagon wheel placed in the center of the design. The rays of the sun, shining as well as the golden reins, are held by Phaethon's own hand. The edges are decorated with poplar leaves and branches with swan feathers and amber tears. One of the last elements added to the overall composition is the thunderbolts of Zeus, which represent Phaethon's striking end. For us, Phaethón's story represents ambition and hope that we should never stop striving to push the limits of our possibilities and to want to do more in our lives. This plate is part of the Metamorphoses Collection. Shop the other styles: Adonis , Hyakintos , or Deucalion .Shipping Notes

Works great
Be careful NOT to get it on painted surfaces it will remove the paint. It does exactly what they say it does and if you follow the directions to the letter you won't have any problems

Worth the time and effort.
Perfect solution to my faded out, sun damaged gel coat. Follow the instructions to the letter for a factory-like shine. One bottle was barely enough for our 22' Winnebago, another bottle for our 29' Cabin Cruiser. Many compliments on the shine.

A quality product which will clean an oxidized fiberglass trailer in preparation for the application of Poli Glow
I used this to remove the Poli Glow previously applied about two years ago to my fiberglass trailer. It seems to do a slightly better job of removing the PG than the other Prep solution, but I didn't do a side-to-side comparison. And the surface never achieved a completely uniform appearance after the stripping, although this may not be possible because of differences in the remaining gel coat surfaces. I also completely washed the trailer with soap & water after using this stripping product. I didn't do this the previous time and thought some of the prep compound may have been left on the surface resulting in a shorter life. Time will tell. Note: it is still "work" to strip the trailer, this is not a "magic" solution, thus the 4-star rating. But it, along with the Poli Glow, was the only way to get my oxidized trailer to look shiny. All the other products tried failed to bring a glow. I will purchase it again when redoing the trailer.
