so i brought out the super secret mixture


i at first tried a 50/50 mix
it was a lil thick so i added more peroxide
(you can see the difference on the pic)
i used a dollar store sprayer to apply the mix
and since i didn't have water avail
i used the garden sprayer to rinse it off

[lil buggy]

so after 15 min and very slight aggitation(3m pad) no hard rubbing

[lil buggy]

lwells, thanks,
really the hardest part was repeadedly squeezen that lil spray bottle
when i do the rest i'll use the garden sprayer to apply a long handled brush and a hose to rinse off
i always like to find cheap, easy and effictive ways of handling issues.
i got to pay homage to where i discovered it

Hello it is nice to see the cleaning results. The post is still old but I want to know the source from where I could purchase the product. Waiting for your reply

No worries shockersdud , and welcome to Boatpittsburgh/ boat local :-)
No issues responding to old threads here! Actually that's why I posted it, so it would pop up if anyone searched for that solution. I'm glad you found it.

The toilet bowl cleanser and peroxide where bought at SAMs club but are readily available in any grocery store, I had the garden sprayer already, but most hardware stores carry them.
Hope it helps.

I was unsure about it also. I saw the blue liquid in the small pump bottle, and thought you had window cleaner in it too.


So... 50/50 mix???

If you don't feel like mixing - you can use straight toilet bowl cleaner called "The Works" it's $1.50 a bottle at Dollar General. It cost me about $15 to clean the whole 28' cruiser... used to cost me atleast $50 to buy Hull On/Off from west marine.... Make sure you wear gloves! It BURNS!

Thanks for posting pictures... i've read about this before and always wanted to try it but I feel like i've always been doing it last minute so I've gone and bought the marine hull cleaner since i've used it before and know that it worked for me. Next time I'm definitely going to get the ingredients (which should actually be even easier to acquire than the marine stuff!) and try it this way.

The smoothest squirting and acting mix seemed to be 75% peroxide 25% Lysol toilet bowl cleaner.
The works will work but the peroxide is like adding steroids to the mix, and allows it to spray better,,,, too much peroxide it's too runny too little peroxide it was too thick.
All in all for both the chemicals it was anout the same For my 25 ft cruiser. The peroxide ends up being cheaper than the toilet cleaner. So that helps

Yes I guess the spray bottle was a Lil Mis leading.

Great way to save a few bucks!
