The frequency of use depends on your boating environment and how quickly fouling occurs. It can be used for annual servicing or as needed for quick maintenance washes.
While safe for many painted surfaces, it is always recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, especially on specialized or freshly applied antifouling paints.
This product is designed for above-waterline use and for cleaning the hull when the boat is out of the water or hauled. Ensure thorough rinsing after application.
A soft brush or sponge is recommended to avoid scratching the hull surface. For tougher grime, a medium-stiff non-metallic brush may be used carefully.
Store the cleaner in its original container, tightly sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
The product is described as water-based and 'gentle on the environment,' but specific biodegradability details are not provided. Always follow local regulations for disposal of cleaning solutions and rinse water.
Ensure the surface is wet before application. For very stubborn stains or heavy growth, allow the cleaner to dwell longer or apply a second time. Gentle scrubbing may be required.
Immediately rinse the area thoroughly with water. Always test on a small, hidden area first. Discontinue use if adverse effects persist.
Ensure thorough rinsing with plenty of fresh water. Use a soft brush or sponge to help remove any loosened grime during the rinse cycle.
Setup: Ensure the area is well-ventilated before application. Wear appropriate protective gear, including gloves and eye protection. Test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first, especially on painted surfaces.
Compatibility: This cleaner is safe for use on fiberglass, GRP, painted hulls, iron, stainless steel, wood, and rubber. It is suitable for inflatables and RIBs.
Care: Apply the cleaner directly to the stained or fouled area. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, or longer for tough stains, without letting it dry on the surface. Agitate gently with a soft brush or sponge if necessary. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Avoid mixing with other cleaning chemicals. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
