Non skid floor cleaning

[baychamp]

What's the best & easiest way to clean non skid floor in bay boat, like in Champion, Nautic Stars. Pressure wash and still see ground in dirt stains.

Plug up ur drain holes. Pour some simple green& bleach in the boat. Fill the boat with 1 inch of water. Let it sit for about 30 min. Then take ur brush and kinda swoosh the water around.
Pull ur plugs, drain boat. Rinse with just a regular garden hose.
Don't need the pressure washer.
For ur decks just coat them with a lil mix of simple green and bleach. Then let sit 30 min.
Lightly brush the decks and then rinse off.

Easy process/ works great! Clean ur fish while boat is sitting.

Thanks, I'll try it. Tried the simple green but never mixed bleach with it.

Try "The Works" from the Dollar store, works great to remove stains.

Make sure to wax after use when cleaning hull stains.

Best off the shelf non skid cleaner I ever found was Attwood Non Skid Deck Cleaner.
Found at Walmart in the boat section. Rinse deck, squirt on deck, scrub with brush, let sit a few minutes and rinse. Sometimes you need a second application.
Once you get it cleaned, use Aurora Sure Step wax. It is designed for non skid decks.
It is not slippery when wet and protects from stains.
There is also something that is called Woody Wax, easier to apply, but slippery when wet and doesn't last as long.
If you use bleach, be sure to get it all off the fiberglass and put a coat of wax on it. Bleach can make the fiberglass chalk up.
If you use Simple Green, it is a degreaser and will take some finish off also. Be sure to wax it after using degreasers and harsh chemicals.

Where u buying that aurora wax?

[Ray]

Hafta get it online from the manufacturer.
They will want you to use their cleaners and stuff before waxing.
I just use Soft Scrub and a brush to get the grime and old wax off.
Then use a long handle brush to apply wax. Then wash brush and
use again to get the wax haze off.

Bar Keepers Friend is what I use. Sprinkle it on a wet deck use scrub brush and deck will be glowing white. I finish with a coat of woodys wax for ease of cleaning and protection.

Clorox cleanup works great too, no scrubbing. Spray it on a wet deck, spread it around, let it sit 10 minutes, rinse. But it takes the wax off too.

Brother used oxy clean on his Bullet where it had water stains and whitened that sucker up good.

X2 on the Soft Scrub . . . If you get it on vinyl, rinse it off immediately . . .
