Re: barnicles baby barnicles
I keep my boat in the water (Chesapeake Bay- Salt Water) without bottom paint for 3 weeks cycles. When I pull the boat it definately has some serious growth.<br /><br />The best thing out of the water is the car wash pressure washers. Its gets all the crud off in about 10 minutes. <br /><br />For in the water, I use plastic putty knives that you buy at home depot or lowes. They are the best thing, since they are plastic and won't harm the hull.<br /><br />Also, another things to purchase is anti-fouling bottom wax. They sell this a westmarine for $20.00.<br /><br />You just put in on with a sock and don't buff.<br /><br />I did this about 3 weeks ago and when I went to clean my boat this cycle the barnicles came off A lOT QUCIKER.<br /><br />Get it and put a good coat on.<br /><br />Again, the little plastic putty knife scrappers are the best.
