subject:Strongest cleaner I know
The strongest cleaner I have worked with is a product sold at West Marine called "On and Off" I first came to know this cleaner throught the Farr 40 fleet. After they spend a bit of time in the water with a polished bottom it would become stained no matter how much they paid divers to scrub it.When I bought Black Jack -San Juan 21 #2403 it was heavily stained and had all the issues spoken to in the previous notes. Boat looks great now and I owe a lot of it to cleaning with this product along with Tilex. It is not for the faint of hart. You will need gloves and a very very well ventilated area. Heaven help you if you have any small cuts on your hands and you will immediately know exactly where they are. With all the tanic acid in the Neuse river here in NC I use it on the hull at least once a year to remove the brown stain we all get when sailing in these type on waterways. It also removes any rust stains right on contact.
Hope this helps and be careful using it. Note! do not buy the gel - only get the straight liquid. Also I have only used it straight and never diluted it, probably to great detriment to my health, but it works!
