content, or polluted water, the stainless steel will periodically develop surface rust stains. This is
perfectly normal under these conditions. The stainless can normally be cleaned and protected by
using a high quality boat or automotive wax or a commercial metal cleaner and protectant.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY ABRASIVE MATERIALS SUCH AS SANDPAPER,
BRONZE WOOL, OR STEEL WOOL BE USED ON STAINLESS STEEL. DAMAGE TO THE
HARDWARE WILL RESULT.
Anodized Aluminum Surfaces
Anodized aluminum should be washed periodically with soap and water to keep it clean. If the boat
is used in saltwater or polluted water, the aluminum should be washed with soap and water after
each use. Saltwater allowed to remain on anodized aluminum will penetrate the anodized coating
and attack the aluminum.
Tops with aluminum frames equipped with canvas and/or fiberglass tops and Bimini tops require
special attention to the anodized aluminum just below the top. This area is subject to salt build up
from salty condensation, heat from the sun, and sea spray. It is also frequently overlooked when
the boat is washed and will not be rinsed by the rain. Consequently, the aluminum just below the
top is more likely to become pitted than the exposed aluminum on the structure. Make sure the
aluminum in this area is washed frequently with soap and water and rinsed thoroughly. Pay
particular attention to places where the top material and lacing contact the frame. Once every two
months coat the entire frame with a metal protector made for anodized aluminum to protect against
pitting and corrosion caused by the harsh effects of saltwater. The anodized aluminum used on your
boat was coated with a metal protector called Aluma Guard at the factory. Aluma Guard is a
nonabrasive marine metal protector that protects anodized aluminum, stainless steel, brass, and
chrome. It also protects colored anodizing from fading and discoloring due to harmful ultraviolet
rays. It is available from Rupp Marine Inc., 4761 Anchor Avenue, P.O. Drawer F, Port Salerno,
FL 34992.
ONE DRAWBACK TO ALUMA GUARD AND OTHER METAL PROTECTORS IS THAT THEY
CAN MAKE THE METAL SLIPPERY. THEREFORE, THEY SHOULD BE NOT BE USED
ON TOWER LADDERS, STEERING WHEELS AND OTHER AREAS WHERE A GOOD GRIP
AND SURE FOOTING IS IMPORTANT.
Stains can be removed with a metal polish or fine polishing compound. To minimize corrosion,
use a caulking compound to bed hardware and fasteners mounted to aluminum fabrications. If the
anodized coating is badly scratched it can be touched up with paint. With proper care, anodized
aluminum will provide many years of service.
Chrome Hardware
Use a good chrome cleaner and polish on all chrome hardware.
