Boat hull cleaning

[Siebert Outdoors]

How many of you guys whip down your hull after fishing?

What do you use?

Also  when you clean the hull  wash/wax,  what products do you use?

I applied Bow to Stern last spring and after two coats the mud line and oil wipe off easily with a damp rag at the ramp.  It also is supposed to inhibit ultraviolet oxidation of the gelcoat as well.  So far, I am pleased with it and it gives my older boat a nice shine.  There are posts on this site that discuss it in more detail.  Search on BTS.

I wipe mine down after every trip.  Have been using Bass Boat Saver for several years.  It gets rid of the scum line with very little effort even if it has dried.  It will get stains out of the carpet also. 

I use 3M products for waxing/cleaning.

I use Bow to Stern for the hull on my last boat (didn't get it yet for the new one)  When I load up the boat on the trailer I'll go around it and wipe it down with a towel.

Maguire's Qwik Klean Marine every couple of trips b/n washes to clean and protect.

For liquid was soap - either dawn dish sopa or simple green - both biodegradbile hence freindly to our finny friends when the suds eventual find there way into the watershed.

Marine store probably have good cleaner, but I used some RV cleaner I had on hand which worked super. RV grime is nasty and takes strong cleaner to get it off.
