Just kind of curious what products you guys use to wipe down your boats after pulling them out of the lake/river.
Life is uncertain. Don't sip.

I use lucas slick mist. Works great and smells awesome!. :thumbup: :thumbup:

I'm using some of my car stuff and I'm impressed with how well it's been working. It's Griots quick detailer and Griots interior cleaner for the vinyl.
I've also used Adam's polishes quick detailer, cleaner, and interior stuff. My dad's an Adams dealer, so I have easy access.
My father in law swears by Ducky's water spot remover.

Im not sure about windex
If im not mistaken windex may remove any wax you have applied
But im not sure

Vinegar will surely remove wax if the Windex doesn't. I wax my boat often, not sure why though as it never prevented water spots in AZ waters.
-
Exactly the vinegar and windex removes the spots and re wipe it down with surf city spray wax with carnauba she shines like an African Americans heel.

Quick wipe down at the ramp with a wet towel followed by a dry. The same day or day after I do I full detail. I've always used mothers and black magic, I have recently been turned onto Adam's. And needless to say, I'm pretty happy with what I've seen. Plus they seem to be everywhere.

White vinegar for most ( rear, sides, engine) and quick detailer for the rest with a water based vinyl sealer on interior. I wax before every trip.

What kind of wax do you use? Spray type or the real stuff?

Mothers quick detailer ( 50/50 with water) at the river or after/assisting wax removal. Usually carnauba on a wet applicator unless I ran into dirty water, ect... then a micro polish( mild bite with some sealer quality by hand or machine). I don't use an aggressive polish (need high speed buffer) that often as its more for damaged,faded or scuffed up paint/gel. All 4 are mothers products.

Damn you guys are better boat owners than me :-[. I just pull it out and wipe it down. I know guys that use white vinegar but for removing hard to remove spots not necessarily for cleaning. I use Meguiar's marine products, I think it works great. After spending a week it the water I 'm able to wipe the dirt and grime line off the boat without products and seeing that there's usually a long drive home why bother, just wash when it get's home. Not to toot my own horn but I still get complements on the way home. I know by experience it's not safe to have the hull super slippery :sly:.

hah on my maiden voyage i went to walk down the deck to pull it on the trailer and i slipped and fell into my bow rail. now i know why those schiadas do the non skid on the deck... its a death trap.
OUCH!! Yep I feel your pain and I didn't even have any bow rail.

Apparently that secret mixture isn't safe.

I did the same thing, but I went off the boat and onto the ramp... Yep, no bow rail. After that I'm super safe and tell everyone else not to walk on the deck. I've thought about spraying some non-skid stuff, but never have.

i removed my bow rail and in the process of sanding off the nonskid so I can paint it I guess it's time to wear some nonskid shoes or stay off the bow
