Yes indeed, but not "detergent," and there's nothing petroleum based.
Even the so-called "biodegradable" boat washes use a lot of petroleum
products. As the name of the product is "Latitude 43 Organic Boat
Soap", one could realistically expect to find some soap in there
someplace.
I'm scheduled to call a guy next week who is one of the enforcement
officers with the
city's Department of Public Utilities and also has a degree in
chemistry. I have a second-hand report that he has done an analysis on
this specific stuff and was very pleased and surprised at what he
*didn't* find in it. I need to verify this report by speaking to him
directly, but it doesn't require a chemist to see that this stuff is
different from most other cleaners. If nothing else, the lack of suds
is remarkable- and the results are first class.
