    Default water spots

    Does anyone know a good way to get water spots off a boat. Have read using vinegar or lime a way works well.

    Duckys all the way for me. For tough spots, spray on and leave it for 30 seconds or so and it should come off. Bling Hot Sauce works great I heard but haven't tried it yet

    Vinegar works good, also it is the cheapest option. Why pay a lot of money to get the same result with something you probably have in your kitchen.

    If that doesn't work, then go buy a product that has been recommended.

    It also strips the wax so you need to reapply

    Heard about Ducky's Water Spot remover and tried it once before I put the boat away for the winter and worked great. My XLV is solid red and black and it took the spots right off I was impressed.

    Babes if the spots aren't too bad, Ducky if they're really on there, and polish if they're etched.

    Agreed! I should have clarified. Babes Boat Bright works great if you use it as preventative maintenance. Other products are better if they have developed and won't go away.

    I was using Vinegar/water mix. Cheap but that is pretty harsh for an after use wash down every time. Didn't want to have wax the boat that much
