Just decarbed for the first time today with Mercury Power Tune. Easier to do than I thought. I noticed what appeared to be small black globs of stuff all around the prop/exhaust. Not an excessive amount, but it looked like someone sprayed some black paint on the gravel. Was this the carbon?<br /><br />After running like crap for about 30 seconds, it's apparent that the hole shot is better, and it seems to start easier. Another question: the motor seems louder now -- is this normal?

Yes and Yes. That is what decarb is supposed to do.
