Posted - 17 Jul 2011 : 21:54:39 In my second year of running a Norman 23 on the Thames in Windsor. Just fitted a new outboard and keen to spruce up the boat itself.
I am a boating novice so am seeking product advice, weblinks, videos, photos or just some plain old advice.
I want the white roof top and decking to look whiter and I'd like to have a go at re-doing the "grippy paint".
All advice or pointers welcomed. May even consider a quote if somebody fancies a summer job in Windsor!
Regards

Posted - 30 Jul 2011 : 05:28:32 As Deano says try to clean with Oxalic Acid it`s cheap, effective and easy. Painting should be a last resort, the original gelcoat is by far the best and it`s remarkable how it cleans. I thought mine would never come up but it did with Oxalic Acid, e-bay it. |

Posted - 18 Jul 2011 : 09:30:19 It's amazing what can be achieved with Oxalic acid - Google 'Oxalic acid boat cleaner' Then a good jet wash, followed by a quality polish to seal it.
