I have used vinegar before but found that it is sometimes not strong enough to take off some of the stubborn hard water spots. Lime-a-way has always done the job for me and does not hurt the finish. It is not to be used on polished aluminum though.

This works great. But a friend told me about adding a bit of wax to the solution a few years ago, and I'm a believer. This will keep a coat of wax on the boat, because the vinegar will strip it. I use it on all the watercraft now. The water on the Colorado river is hard as rock, and leaves a mess when baked on at 115degrees.

10%wax/ 45%distilled water/ 45% white vinegar.
