I also agree with Rob – it does look like you are mixing old dirt in with the wax.
When I had to give mine a good cleaning, I used Softscrub and rinsed it off very well.

You used Meguair Wax #50 which is a combination cleaner and polish. This, or similar products, may not be the best to start restoring a heavy oxidized gelcoat surface. The combination cleaner and wax will lift out the dirt from the pores in the gelcoat and you are simply mixing them up in the one step product. It might be best to first use a gelcoat cleaner only to remove the oxidation and dirt. My hull is white and every second year I use Collinite 920 Cleaner before I wax with Colilinite 925. It is a 2 step process but you should not have the yellowish gelcoat if you do this. Try using a cleaner only on the part you have already done to see what happens. https://www.collinite.com/product-category/marine/ Rob Abbott AZURA C&C 32 - #277 Halifax, N.S.

Today my son helped me to polish the hull. We used the Meguair Wax #50, to my surprise, where it was polished (a small area) turned out to be a bit more yellowish than white. Is this expected? (I hope the picture is clear enough). https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BAiDMWmeSLHU3r-Gsh-N-f3B_iR4FU3J/view?usp=sharing Or is it just I am not doing this correctly?
