Default Need Props cleaned
After leaving my boat in the water during Key West Run, i pulled it out and my props are almost completly covered. Any easy off items I can use to get them back. I dont really have the time to scrub them. Thanks,

I use industrial strength Toilet Bowl Cleaner or Simple Green.. Either work pretty good. Pull the prop/s off and lay in sink, spray on, rub in with your hands, let sit for a few minutes and wash off well. Do not sand or use a scotchbrite.. -Eric

Just use some acidic type of toilet bowl cleaner or lime away.

I use "aluminum brightener" available from Napa, but like said
before, any acid based cleaner should work

1% muriatic acid solution rinse off extremely well works good on hulls too just as long as they dont have zinc or copper based bottom paint

T-Bowl cleaner worked perfect. Took everything off... Spray on and rinse it right off.
