Hi

 

Found this list and thought it useful;

 

If you want to use alternatives to other proprietary boat care products, some of them arguably more environmentally friendly or safer to handle, try these:

 

Product - Alternative

 

Bleach - Borax

 

Detergent & Soap - Holystone & hard work

 

Scouring powder - Baking soda, or rub area with half a lemon dipped in borax, then rinse

 

General cleaner - Baking soda and vinegar, or lemon juice mixed with borax paste

 

Floor cleaner - One cup of vinegar in 8 litres of water

 

Window cleaner - One cup of vinegar in 2 litres of water, rinse and squeegee

 

Aluminium cleaner - 2 tablespoons of cream of tartar in 2 litres of hot water

 

Brass cleaner - Worcester sauce, or paste made of equal amounts of salt, vinegar and water

 

Fibreglass stain remover - Baking soda paste

 

Mildew remover - Paste of equal quantities of lemon juice and salt, or white vinegar and salt
