Several months ago, JimH, a person on this group made fun of your last
name, your boat, where you lived, the house in which you lived, your
reasons for selling your boat, your being boatless, and any other
personal
information this individual could glean from your posts.




He is certainly a very nasty and negative person lately and now spends
his
time here picking fights and stirring the pot.

Now I know how you and Kevin felt when he attacked both of you every day.




In this post I said nothing negative. I stated some facts.

No John, you did not post facts...........you posted lies.


Upon further consideration I retract the statement about you telling lies
and was wrong in saying what I did.


In fact, you were wrong in both posts.

If you don't have access to oxalic acid, use Barkeeper's Friend. About $5,
in a cardboard cylinder package; I bought it in the cleanser section at
Wal-Mart. Wipe on with a damp rag and rinse off - no scrubbing!


William, I brought the boat home today to start cleaning her up for vacation
and raise the waterline (bottompaint). I used the Barkeepers Friend to
clean the scumline as you suggested and it worked wonderfully! Thanks for
the heads up.

I misjudged the waterline on my boat when I applied the epoxy barrier

bottom paint.

I will not try to fix the epoxy barrier coat coverage but I will be
raising the bottom paint line when I put the boat on the trailer (in
preparation for our vacation on Put-In-Bay) next week.

So how do you remove the scum line? I have brushed it off every time

I
have been in the water and washing down the boat and outdrive, but a

scum
line remains.

TIA!


Hang out with a better crowd!

Not possible. ;-)



A mixture of oxalic acid and a mild scrub brush will do it.
Wear goggles.

OK. John recommended the same thing. Thanks!


You're quite welcome!

Barkeepers Friend is a wonderful product. It's also a great brass and
copper cleaner. I wouldn't waste it as a stainless stelle cleaner; I'd
just use Bab-O.
