    yellowish tint on hull....HELP

    well i jsut got back from vacation where I had my boat in freshwater lake for a week straight, no coming out. I pulled it out and there seems to be a yellow/orangish haze on my hull. It is really not noticable until you get with 10feet of the boat but I want to get it off there. I tried to use Starbrights black spot remover thinking it would do the same thing for the haze and it did nothing. I also tried boat wash from Meguarars and it also didn't touch it. What can I do???

          Cleaner

          Not sure if any of you have heard about Restore and Wonderfoam but those 2 products are second to none and that is the truth. Try it you will love it. http://www.larsensales.com I use it all the time and my boat looks new because of it. A guy in Vegas used to have it made but another guy has is making it now. Oh and this is the original Restore and Wonderfoam. Skeeter

              I use Mequires gel-coat/rv wax/cleaner. Has worked on the same thing.

                You can try vinegar and water before your product arrives. Just make sure you put a coat of wax on after you do it.

                        For real stubborn growth, i've used muriatic acid in the past. Just be sure to wash the thing thoroughly afterwards and put some wax on. Also wear gloves and goggles. it will take that stuff right off.

                          And the best part is, prob costs about $8 for a gallon at Lowes.

                            I do a lot of boat detailing and use muriatic acid all the time, i just mix it about 50/50 with water in a weed sprayer and use a car wash brush then powerwash it off. Dont be scared of it, it will not damage the finish unless you leave it on way too long, i usually wait about a minute.

                              Our boat sits in lake water every weekend. The water is root beer in color. It even turns green when the algee is in bloom. Every Sunday I take out the boat and have to get teh yellow/green scum line off the boat. Soap and water will not work. The best stuff to use imo - Star Brite Hull Cleaner (just a warning it will bleach clothing). Then I rinse and follow with Larsen's Restore. Like Skeeter said the larsens restore boat polish product is by far the best.
