July 13, 2021Waxing a boat is a time-consuming task, so it pays to use a premium quality soap that won't strip the finish. Boat Cleaner from BoatLIFE quickly removes even the most stubborn dirt and grime, yet is biodegradable, so rinse water can run overboard without harming sensitive aquatic life.
Made in the USA, Boat Cleaner doesn't contain harsh chemicals like phosphates. This makes it ideal for use on sensitive areas such as baitwells and livewells. The non-toxic formula is so safe, it passes the strict guidelines for biodegradable products in both California and Europe.
The advanced formula is ideal for cleaning gelcoat, paint, varnish, metal and other marine surfaces. While tough on stains, Boat Cleaner is gentle enough to clean sailcloth, canvas and other marine fabrics.
Boat Cleaner is simple to use. Mix four ounces of the concentrated formula with a gallon of water. Work the solution in a circular motion with a sponge, brush or towel. For very dirty areas, such as around the exhaust, the ratio can be increased up to one-to-one. Rinse with water to a spot-free finish. A one-quart bottle of BoatLIFE Boat Cleaner costs $21.43; a one-gallon container is $64.29.
