    Default Best cleaning products ?

    Interior;
    Malco or TotallyAwesome cleaner
    303 protectant

    Exterior;
    When I do a full cleaning I use white vinegar, then re-wax. I don't have a particular favorite wax


    I want to find a good spray wax to keep the boat fresh after a day on the water.

    I use the exact same stuff as you Ian, and on the Mojo i have been using McGuires Spray on wax after the boat comes out of the water and no water spots yet. It smells great as your doing it also.

    I also spray distilled white venegar / water 50% in the engine bay carpet, and under my IBS bag. This keeps it from Molding during our season.

    Even 3 weeks in the garage with air flow my boat carpet is still damp from the last outting. Only way my interior dries out is leave the boat outside or use fans.

    I put mine in the 100 degree garage with two fans running and it's dry the next day.

    I never experiment with vinegar (water mix). I guess, there's always first time for everything LOL

    This is good remove wax and any build up, also the stronger it is the more water spots it will remove just by whiping it down. You do have to deal with the smell.

    I use it on the carpets in the engine area and IBS because it stops all mold growth, also when its stored over the winter it prevents spiders from nesting in the boat as well. It only smells for a few hours then only the critters can smell it.

    I second all the opinions on babes. smells yummy when going on, but doesn't really seem to "clean" stains. malco for cleaning then babes to treat it again. kept the seats in the supra looking brand new the day I sold it..

    I have read that meguires for boats is the best wax out there and to stay away from regular auto waxes.
