How to remove stains on boat

Post by Buckle&scream » Mon Feb 08, 2016 10:41 am

Hi all just looking for some options on what to use to clean my boat, I need to get rid of dark water line marks on the hull and marks made from my fenders rubbing agains boat while at the ramp, Iv heard toilet bowl cleaner does it with easy, I want to gently wipe the stains of I don't want to scrub much. Any options would be much appreciated..

You tube mate - your best friend in these instances :)

Goodluck hope it helps - if not the other thing I would try is a mixture of vinegar/lemon juice in warm water, give that a go. A light scrub won't hurt it :thumbsup:

This is how I used to do it as wellbut steel wool I don't want to use, need something more easier. I've geared bath tub clean and bleach does it with ease will try it out soon..

I use some stuff I got from whitworths made by starbrite you wipe it on 5 mins then hose off its a no acid formula I normally polish my boat afterwards.
