Zebra Mussel protection on fresh water Outdrives
For the first time ever last summer, my boat had a ton of zebra mussels
attached to the outdrives of my boat when I pulled it out in October. I keep it in Lake Erie for the summer. I use VC-17M anti fouling paint on the bottom of my boat and love it but I don't want to paint my outdrives - the boat's a 1993 and the outdrives (Volvo DuoProps) look like new. I'd hate to ruin their appearance with a paint. Does anyone know of a clear product - spray or brush - that would protect the outdrives from zebra mussels? Except for this last summer, I've had great success spraying the cleaner called "On / Off" (some kind of acid) and brushing the outdrives clean easily. Those darn zebra mussels were tough as nails to remove. I had to use a plastic paint scrapper and then scrub with the acid to clean the outdrives. Any ideas? A guy at work suggested "Scat". I never heard of it. Thanks! |
