Star brite aluminum boat bottom cleaner/restorer is specially formulated to remove dirt, waterline and bottom vegetation from aluminum boats. The product is biodegradable. A special buffer solution makes this product safer to use than many other similar products without compromising on effectiveness.

FOLLOW THE PRODUCT'S INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!
Because aluminum oxidizes unevenly, heavily oxidized areas require more aggressive cleaning than lightly oxidized areas. Follow these instructions for best results. Failure to follow these instructions will result in an uneven, streaky, or uneven surface. The product requires further treatment with Aluminum Protective Polish (sold separately).

When using Star brite Aluminium Cleaner & Restorer you must:
ALWAYS apply the product evenly with a scrubbing pad.
ALWAYS rinse thoroughly before the product dries.
ALWAYS follow up with Star brite aluminum boat PTFE polish/wax .

SUPPLIES NEEDED:

Before you begin, you will need acid-resistant gloves, safety glasses, Star brite Aluminum Boat Bottom Washer/Restorer, Star brite Medium Scrub Pad (red), Star brite Aluminum Polish, several clean polishing cloths, and water from a hose for rinsing.

Step 1.

To avoid streaks, start at the bottom of the area to be cleaned and work up in small areas at a time. Apply Star brite Aluminum Boat Bottom Cleaner to the surface in even strokes using the fine mist setting on the spray nozzle. The cleaner will foam when it contacts the oxidized area, indicating that it is working.

Step 2.

Use the Star Brite Red Medium Grit Scrubbing Pad to spread the Aluminum Boat Bottom Cleaner into an even, covering layer. Then scrub systematically with even pressure to allow the cleaner to penetrate even the most heavily oxidized areas.

Step 3.

Rinse the cleaned surface thoroughly with clean water. Remember to rinse the surfaces underneath as well. DO NOT allow the cleaner to dry on any surface.

Repeat these steps as needed until the surface is clean. Heavy oxidation may require multiple applications and scrubbing to completely remove. Note that the cleaned surface may still appear uneven until polished.

Next, restore shine with Star brite Aluminum Boat PTFE Polish – Sold separately

Prevents corrosion, rusting and fading.

Aluminum surfaces only stay bright and shiny with special treatment, so Star brite® Ultimate Aluminum Polish is the ultimate choice. Star brite® Ultimate Aluminum Polish is specially formulated for the treatment of aluminum surfaces. It creates a protective layer on the treated surface against dirt and ultraviolet rays and prevents the shiny surfaces from clouding. PTEF® polymers adhere to the treated areas and prevent dirt and stains from adhering. Note: If the aluminum surface is dirty, first treat it with Star brite Aluminum Boat Bottom Wash/Restorer and then finish with Ultimate Aluminum Polish for a protective and shiny surface. Star brite® Aluminum Polish is also effective in removing cleaning agent residues that have not been rinsed off the surface properly.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: Clean the surface to be polished. Shake the bottle vigorously. Apply the polish evenly and in a circular motion to a small area at a time with a clean, dry cloth. Rub the area carefully. Add more polish if necessary, as the polishing effect is best when the cloth is damp. The cloth used for polishing may become discolored. This is due to oxidations coming off the surface being treated or the surface becoming discolored. Shake the cloth clean or replace it with a new one if necessary so as not to rub loose oxidations onto the surface to be polished. Surfaces with limescale and oxidations,
may need to be treated more than once. When the polish dries to a cloudy layer, wipe the treated area with a soft, dry cloth. Shake the cloth occasionally to remove any loose residue or replace the cloth with a new one.

Star brite Teak Cleaner + Brightener cleans and brightens teak in one go (step 1 + step 2), saving you time and effort. The powerful formula quickly prepares the surface for oiling. Ideal for use on all woods, decks and furniture. Biodegradable.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: For heavily soiled or weathered surfaces, apply the product directly to dry wood. Use a coarse brush to spread the product throughout. Leave to work in for an average of two to three minutes before brushing. Brush in the grain of the wood to ensure a deep clean before rinsing with clean water. Heavily soiled surfaces may require a second treatment. If the wood is only slightly soiled, apply the product to a damp surface. Brush lightly in the grain of the wood and rinse thoroughly with clean water. After cleaning, use teak oil to restore the natural color and tone and to protect the surface. Rinse spills immediately from surfaces that you do not want to treat. Avoid contact with fabrics.

Star brite stain remover effectively cleans and removes sea pox (stain) from boat hulls and traction devices. Also effectively removes sea / lake dirt from rubber and RIB boats. Excellent for fiberglass, wood and iron surfaces. Spray on dry hull, allow to act and rinse. Special patented product.

Washing the bottom of the boat
The bottom of the boat is often the dirtiest place to wash it. All sorts of dirt has accumulated there from the water during the season. In addition to dirt, sea lice (sea pox) are also a nuisance in marine areas. Removing them without a proper detergent is almost impossible. Even when washing with a pressure washer, the bottom of the sea lice will stick to the boat. Removing sea lice is not only a matter of appearance, as sea lice also slow down the boat's speed and increase fuel consumption in fuel-powered boats.

Star brite tar remover effectively cleans and removes sea pox (tar) from boat hulls and traction devices. Also effectively removes sea / lake dirt from rubber and RIB boats. Excellent for fiberglass, wood and iron surfaces. The product is easy to use: spray on a dry hull, let it work and rinse. Remember to wear protective equipment and follow the instructions for use.

Another effective product for bottom cleaning is Hull and bottom cleaner Ez-on Ez-off. The advantage of this product is that it also works well in cooler weather. Therefore, it is well suited for Finnish spring and autumn (and sometimes, unfortunately, summer). Star brite hydrochloric acid-based hull and bottom cleaner Ez-on Ez-off cleans the hull of the boat from vegetation, slime and seaweed, etc. The product is buffered, so it is safer than many other acid-based boat bottom cleaning products. Suitable for fiberglass, wood and iron surfaces. Remember to wear safety equipment and follow the instructions for use!

When washing the bottom, there is one important thing to remember. In marine areas, the bottoms of most boats are painted with antifouling paint (toxic paint). This paint is not at all healthy for humans either when the substance comes into contact with the skin or when inhaled into the lungs. For this reason, the antifouling surface should never be brushed or sanded dry. Always moisten the surface of the toxic paint properly before starting work.

Star brite deck cleaner removes even the toughest dirt and stains from deep within the pores of the roughening thanks to surfactants. Some dirt gets deeper than more common surface stains and is more difficult to remove. This problem is especially familiar from roughened boat deck surfaces. In this case, we need to use surfactants, chelates. Their molecules surround the dirt molecules and lift the dirt to the surface you are cleaning. This allows them to be washed off with water without damaging the surface.

Star brite deck cleaner not only cleans difficult surfaces, but it also leaves a protective PTFE film on the surface, which is not slippery. The film protects the surface from re-soiling and UV radiation. The product is safe to use because it does not contain strong acids. It does not require hard scrubbing, but it is worth applying the substance with a brush to get it to the entire area of ??the surface to be washed. Excellent for all fiberglass, vinyl, plastic, metal and painted surfaces.



DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Wet the lid. Apply the product to the surface to be treated and brush the area thoroughly. Leave for 2-3 minutes and brush the lid thoroughly and rinse well. Allow the lid to dry. Heavily soiled lids may require a second treatment.

Vinyl cleaner is formulated to remove tough dirt, greasy marks and slime.

Applications include car, RV and boat upholstery, interior/exterior moldings, rain gear and outdoor cushions and canopies. The powerful formula is tough on dirt, but is not harmful to vinyl. The vinyl cleaner does not contain acids or corrosive substances. Suitable for vinyl, plastic, rubber and leather.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Spray the cleaner onto the surface to be cleaned. Spread the cleaner evenly by rubbing with a cloth, soft brush or sponge in a circular motion. Allow the cleaner to work on the surface for 15-30 seconds before wiping or rinsing. Stubborn stains may require a second cleaning, soaking for about a minute and gently scrubbing, then rinsing or wiping.

NOTE: Test sensitive surfaces (leather, decals, waterline tape, painted areas) and areas where product may drip on a small, inconspicuous area before use. Do not use if any adverse effects occur. Star brite will not be liable for any damages up to the purchase price of this product.
