0 gofishingtom Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 i have found that the toilet bowl cleaner THE WORKS does the best job at getting scum line and white dried on [PoorWordUsage] from back of boat and motor..i just spray it on and it just melts off then hose it off ..really never have had to scrub with that stuff and it get rid of rust stains also..try it it might surprise you..

0 gofishingtom Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Fin....i have used the works the last 2 years and havent had any issues with it...put it in a spray bottle and its not on my boat for more the a couple minutes and i hose it right off and the back of the boat looks brand new...i have tried all other stuff and done the spray on wait 10 minutes and use towel to take off but always when it dried the white scum came back..with the works my boat looks brand new at the water line..so i have not had any issues with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
