Need a Year-Round Plan for Protecting a Trailered Boat from UV and Mildew
JimC,
Instead of using Lysol spray, I purchase Lysol concentrate and mix it in a bucket. I use a sponge to wipe down everything. For those areas where some mildew set in, I use OxiClean to remove the stain. "Jim Carter" wrote in message ... wrote in message oups.com... I need to find a method that I can use to protect a 18-ft fiberglass boat from UV and mildew through out the year. Before you put the boat under it's cover, be sure to wipe the interior surfaces with a Lysol type spray. Just spray and wipe the interior so that the mildew will not grow. As others have pointed out, a breathable cover is best and be sure to put in vents. Jim C. |

JimC,
It is sold in supermarkets and mass merchandisers such as Target, Wal-Mart and Kmart. It is not popular, so it is on the top shelf and takes up one row, so you have to look for it. http://www.walgreens.com/store/produ...ec=frgl_614632 The only thing I use it for to clean up my boat, so I don't get mildew. I hate the smell, it smells like a hospital, but it only lasts a few hours. "Jim Carter" wrote in message ... "Wm Shakespeare Smithers" The WordSmith wrote in message ...

It sure is a lot less expensive than the spray cans and it makes gallons of cleaner. Jim C. |
