Cleaning the boat - what does everyone use?

[mercruiser-mitch]

Hi guys, I will be going over to help my mate clean his boat, and do a spark plug change next week, just thought I would ask for any hints of tips or any products that might help.

He has a jet washer and some cleaner, Im taking carb cleaner for the carb and some degreaser for the engine bay, as well as a steam cleaner for the seats.

Are there any really really good products that people have used on their boat they would recomend?

This is right from the bottle......"tough task remover" "removes tough, oily, greasy, grimy, gooey problems. Says you can use it as a stain remover on laundry, safe for most all surfaces. I used it to clean every surface in my boat darn near. I used it to clean my awning on my travel trailer when I first got is as it had mildew on it and cleaned it up looking like new!

I use simple green on my upholstry with rim cleaning brush... just about the only thing I've found that will bring upholstery back to clean. Takes a little elbow grease but it'll get damn near anything out of upholstery if you take your time.
