Bilge cleaner
 
I have a 2004 sonic 31ss. Anybody that has this boat knows that the engine compartment comes as a bright white. I would like to keep it that way. Can you recommend something to scub it down with to keep it that shiny white? Bleach? On Off? I was also wondering if anybody has any ideas on what to buy as a scrubbing tool to get under the motors and down the back being the small space is hard to work with. Or has anybody made something?

On/Off works great, but if you leave it on too long it will turn the white yellow..... best to do it out of the water, open the drain plug, use a spray bottle to keep it away from the rubber hoses and wash out within a minute...or so. I have not used anything that comes close to cleanig like that.

I've tried about everything for detailing a boat. The Fountain of Youth stuff is the best I've used:

I used the powerwasher, I was able to to get into the nooks and crannies. I did use Knights citrus based grease off before I powerwashed. I just did not spray hard on the delicate things.

Sounds funny but a toilet brush works good

I used Dawn in the bilge and it cleaned up oil and grease great.

What a Trooper! Is Dawn your wife or your girlfriend??? I tried asking my girlfriend to climb in there and clean out the bilge in my boat, and she looked at me like I was nuts! You've got a keeper there! :lolhit:
