Default Black Boat Blues

Hind sight is 20/20 right? Lol.
Well lesson learned on a black boat.
The water stains were horrific on my boat. Ive used various orange/citrus based cleaners, purple power (both dilluted and full strength) windex, awesome, dawn, ect ect. Those water spots just laughed at me! lmao.
Finally went with a 50/50 of white vinegar and boiling water. Still some spots but at least i can see pure paint again. At the cost of dulling the shine some, i had to use a scotchbrite pad to scrub it as well.
2 coats of good old fashion turtle wax should hopefully curb any future build-up.
I know ive read a fairly recent thread about you guys saying what youve all used and i thought i tried just about everything. Lol.
The sad thing is, now with a nice clean boat, all the battle scars with boat docks really pop and scream at ya! lol.
Lesson of the boat owning life: no black boats. End of lesson! lol
