Star brite Direct Release Boat Wash - 32 oz

Why you'll want it

• Works on many boat surfaces. One bottle covers fiberglass, vinyl, and metal, plus painted parts. It is also listed for aluminum, plastic, and varnished parts.
• Made for fresh or salt water. It is made for fresh water and salt water alike, so one bottle works wherever your boat floats. It lifts dirt and salt buildup too.
• Certified by the EPA Safer Choice Program. The EPA's Safer Choice program has certified it for outdoor and direct release use. The product text says its formula uses plant-based surfactants.
• Clean off the salt before winter storage. Fall is a good time to clean off salt and dirt before the boat sits for winter, so it is ready when spring comes.

What else the job needs
