The Saponified coconut oil is more commonly known as "soap". 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. |
