Take it easy there. I hadn't heard anything on what was out on the market. Just hoped for some good opinions as there are several products out there selling for way more than they are worth. I mean "best bang for the buck" is kind of my motto for the boat as a whole. Otherwise I'd have a brand new one. I'm on a budget, but I do want to take good care of the boat, as we hope to keep it for quite a while. We love it.

Maybe it's the Mormon influence out there of seeking economical products?

Babes, Boat Bling Hot Sauce, Spotless and vinegar are all popular options. No sure which is the most cost effective other than the vinegar.

I use Babes Boat Bright (different from Spot Solver) for quick wipe downs. You can save a few bucks buying it by the gallon, and refilling the little spray bottles.

I'm looking for a good spray/cleaner for the water spots for use when we pull off the lake. I had some "Babe's Spot Solver" that came with the boat when I bought it about 6 months ago, but I have run out. I really want the best bang for the buck. I know there are some really expensive products out there that I don't care to spend my money on, but I don't want to use vinegar either. Just something my guests can use to help clean up after a day of use.

FYI, I use my boat in the Utah mountain lakes, so it only gets use from April to October. When it is in use, I use it between 1-2 times a week, with a few long weekend uses in there. I don't know if it matters to know how long it will sit between use, but I thought I would throw that in there in case it is helpful info.

Somewhat related topic; I would love to know if anyone has any suggestions on how to get my tower shiny again. I have looked at the hardware stores to see if they have a powder coat polish, but I can't find anything.
