What they said - Starbright Hull Cleaner!
Then wax/cleaner wax. Then - Hot Sauce!
Hot Sauce is fantastic - for "fresh" waterline scum (on a previously waxed hull).
Star brite instant hull cleaner or On/off. Just wear a mask and gloves. Has some acid in it. Don’t get it on a lift or your trailer though. Wipe on 5 seconds later it’s like magic and gone and rinse with lots of water. Then you have to rewax again. I do the whole process once at end of the season. Clean and waxed for next spring.
Have used "Amazing Roll Off Multi Surface Cleaner"
Told the dealer when I bought the boat that right now is the cleanest this boat was ever going to get as he was spraying the stuff on and wiping slight imperfections off the brand new boat.
He was mildly irritated by the futility comment and gave me the bottle to take home. Have been using it to clean every part that is boat ever since.
Have used 303 Marine Aerospace Protectant on the vinyl parts of the seats as a protectant, and 303 Fabric Guard to protect the cloth part of the upholstery, bimini top, and the Mooring cover that is allegedly made from Sunbrella.
Unfortunately not. It's called SureLast or something and the newest (2016-17+) are supposed to be improved (BW+) but it is far from the top quality covers.
That Awesome spray is not bad, actually, can come in handy. Unfortunately it does not do $hit on the new corrugated white-ish vinyl.
I do not want to use bleach, so my last hope - will be experimenting with nine-spray (or spray-nine) next week.
I like this thread...seems like 303 or Boat Bling are the top choice for interior clean and protectant. I'm still unsure what wash and wax to be used for the hull? (I haven't waxed mine, picked the boat up 2 months ago and it has about 23 hours in salt water). I've been using a Meguiar's Car wash solution...
With the weather (hurricanes and tropical storms) coming through, seems like a good weekend for waxing.
