How do clean boats? Regular dish soap? Meaning different cleaning methods for:
fiberglass hull
aluminum hull
plastic hull
What works best for me cleaning ceramic tiles (and grout) is Soft Scrub. Would that be too harsh for any of the above hulls? I am seeing boats that have "rust" color on sides of hulls, some looks heavy. Do those stains completely come off (back to bright white for fiberglass)? Then after cleaning, need apply Johnson Paste Wax? Buffer?
Example... correct me here... for aluminum, can use wire brush, go long way or wherever want to show the scratch lines. Can even use steel wool. What about power drill wire brush? Aluminum can weaken if sanding too much. If found holes, only use aluminum brazing (and yellow MAP torch).
I know there's specific cleaning bottles at boat retailers for cleaning. I just want to know what at-home or kitchen bottles can use. So I understand the cleaning, before buying specific bottle without understanding why.
