I love this hull cleaner

Post by AsLan7 »

.
Every year I use this Starbrite hull cleaner (purchased at Wallymart) and it never lets me down. Our hull bottom tends to build up a yellowish scum throughout the summer. You simply spray this stuff on and hose it off. Literally within seconds it removes the scum and the hull is back to white again. It’s just so easy!

A7 so does Erie stain your hull that bad after 1 weekend of use? I boat on a sewer and my boat has to sit still for a good few days to look stained that much.

That’s a summers worth. I’m guessing it’s mostly from any oil and gas from other boats near dock or ramp areas.

...and yes, no scrubbing! Just spray it off. 👌🏻

A7 I use the same stuff, but I also use a sponge mop. And once when I ran out of hull cleaner I just used some toilet bowl cleaner cut 50% with water. Works like a charm.
Then I follow it with either hot Sauce or Adam's H2O with a sponge mop.

I think I use their teak cleaner products too. Pretty solid results, although teak is always a bit more work.

Nice job A7. She looks beautiful.

I used Super Clean. Same process: spray on, wait 3-5 minutes. A few nasty spots needed scrubbing, but the rest was just hose off. It also worked on the out drive.

A7, I grabbed two bottles of this at Walmart after I read this. I sprayed it on and then followed up with a rag, but the results were amazing. I had some slight oxidation on our boot stripe, and it completely removed it.
