but not just any soap.
Household detergent can
harm many boat surfaces, as
well as the environment.
Household soaps may
appear to do an adequate
job, but your boat’s finish
can become oxidized in a
matter of weeks.
Begin washing your
boat with 3M™ Marine
Boat Soap. This versatile
product features a concen-
trated formula that quickly
cleans the hull, decks, car-
pet, canvas — even the
engines. Just mix with
water to achieve the
desired cleaning strength.
Removing
Black Streaks
It is especially difficult to
remove black streaks
because water — mixed
with sea spray and dirt —
is constantly channeled
down the same place on
the boat. Regardless of
whether the water is from a
rainstorm or overnight con-
densation, dirt and grime
are usually concentrated in
one or two areas, causing
the streaks.
Boat soap will do a
good job of removing many
of those unsightly black
streaks. However, it takes
an extra-strong cleaner to
remove stubborn streaks.
Don’t waste time scrub-
bing those unsightly streaks.
Use 3M™ Marine Black
Streak Remover. This prod-
uct is specifically formulat-
ed to quickly clean tough
streaks without harming
your boat’s surface. Black
streak remover is strong, yet
safe to use on fiberglass,
metal and painted surfaces.
It attacks the streak without
leaving a residue or making
it obvious where you wiped
the streak away.
Cleaning The
Hull And Deck
Once you have completed
washing the boat, there
may still be work to do
on the hull. 3M™ Marine
Boat Wash is an excellent
choice to use on the tough
stuff — algae, grime,
oil, fish blood and dirt.
Boat Wash is also ideal
for cleaning fiberglass,
metal and painted sur-
faces. This cleaner can be
used at the waterline to
remove slime and stains
that other cleaners cannot
remove.
