Title: Deck & Hull cleaning & waxing products
Post by: boroughf on May 29, 2011, 03:55:29 AM
Anyone have any recommendations or favorite products for doing a thorough cleaning/reconditioning job on the decks (non-slip) and the hull?

I am not sure about the reconditioning, but we are using Simple Green to clean and Woody Wax to protect the deck.  That and keeping the boat covered...

Congrats soon too...

We use Starbrite Premium Marine Polish for wax and what Greg uses from West Marine for the others.  I also use Magic Erasers and Greased Lightening (it is a yellow bottle cleaner like Simply Green) and it does an amazing job on the bottom, but the magic erasers fall apart on the deck (rough surfaces).  We also keep the boat covered whenever out of the water and on the trailer.

Once the hull is clean there is a product called poly glow that will make the hull look like it just came out of the mold. I watched Jim Chapman use it to spruce up Stoaked befor he sold it and the result was jaw dropping.
