I go to the dollar store and buy the Lime Away. Works good on the hull and exhaust tips. I put a piece of paper towel on the tips and soak them with Lime Away and keep it wet for 10-15 minutes and rinse off. I run my props too hard for them to get buildup of any kind.

Kindve like FSR by Davis to get the yellowing out of the hull after running in the ocean. Wipe on spray off and the hull is brilliant white again. Amazing!!

I have zero affiliation to either product. Just love a product that works well.

Lysol Toilet Bowl Cleaner. HAS to be the gel version. I spread it on anything stainless, drink 1/2 to 1 beer, hose it off. No rubbing, no scrubbing.

Those acid based cleaners are removing the wax/polish from your hull.

Salt water here in S Fla makes them dull.

Not nearly as bad at LOTO after week and props still great
