Anyone with a boat they've kept in a boat slip in a marina for the summer has to face the dreaded hull cleanup after pulling the boat out for storage. My hull was a grimy mess that even my high pressure power washer didnt make a dent in. Ive used a bunch of different products like Starbrite Instant Hull Clean, Zing, etc. They work well, but are pricey for a 22' walk around like my Trophy Pro ..
I did some Googling and came up with this recipe..... you need
1 quart spray bottle
toilet bowl cleaner (cheap Dollar store stuff works great)
ammonia
hydrogen peroxide
Put on safety stuff..mask, goggles, rubber gloves.
Take a 1 quart spray bottle, fill it halfway with the toilet bowl cleaner.
Add 1.5 cups ammonia
fill up with peroxide
Thats it. Spray on, leave for 5 mins, power wash off. Tough spots may need a bit of scrubbing with a brush, but I found only light scrubbing was necessary.
I mixed up enough for a gallon garden sprayer with a wand and used it...so easy.
Total cost was less than $20 and it worked just as well as commercial products costing 5X as much.
