This page will be updated regularly to show you the products we try and love because we prefer to show you the use in real situation.
Over the years, we have acquired excellent knowledge of which products to use to obtain the best results depending on the task at hand.
Here are our favorite products:
Starbrite Rust Stain Remover
One of my favorite products for keeping the boat clean inside and out is Starbrite Rust Stain Remover. This product does exactly what it says: rust stains disappear like magic on most surfaces, even fabric!
An essential to have on board!
Starbrite Salt Off and Camco water hose
To preserve the life of your engine and many accessories on board your boat if you navigate in salt water, Starbrite Salt Off is another product you need. It is easy to use and prevents damage caused by salt. We use it to clean the engine of our tender after each sea trip with the Camco cleaning system. An ideal combination!
Products for teak Ditec
Ditec products for the maintenance of teak floors are a little more expensive, but offer superior performance and believe us, over the years, we have tried several! The acid-free cleaner is effective and will not compromise the integrity of your wood like many acid-based products, bleach, or using a pressure washer.
As teak wood is an amalgam of hard and soft fibers, more aggressive treatments eat away the soft part of the wood making sanding mandatory after a few treatments to even out the fibers and replacement of the floor becomes necessary after a few years.
Ditec deeply cleans the fibers to bring back this beautiful golden color without affecting the integrity of the wood fibers.
The sealer Triton 2.0 then protects the wood from UV rays for several months. Everything is easy to apply.
Starbrite Star Tron
Starbrite’s Star Tron fuel additive helps ensure optimal efficiency in lubricating and cleaning your engine components. For diesel engines, it acts as an additional lubricant to overcome the dryness of diesel and for gasoline engines, it also prevents gasoline from separating when stored for a long time.
Beeswax teak protector
To keep teak furniture its beautiful golden color and protect it without the inconvenience of varnishes and oils, nothing beats beeswax which deeply hydrates the wood and leaves it with waterproof protection.
