For gelcoat, painted surfaces, and smooth plastics – fast, controlled, low-streak.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE FINISHER CleanMarine Boat Shampoo\u003c\/strong\u003e is the straightforward main wash for smooth gelcoat and high-gloss painted surfaces. The surfactant base encapsulates salt, spray, and organic residues, while lubricating additives significantly reduce friction during contact. This allows for safer washing, cleaner rinsing, and preservation of existing waxes or spray sealants. Ideal after a brief pre-cleaning (AllWays) and before a hydrophobic finish with BodyGuard – for a surface that visibly stays fresh longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSalt \u0026amp; Spray Under Control: \u003c\/strong\u003eEncapsulates residues and rinses them away without residue – fewer water spots, a calmer finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Lubricity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reduces friction during brushing\/washing and helps prevent micro-scratches – especially on dark, smooth surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLSP-Friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Preserves wax and spray protection instead of stripping it; perfect base for BodyGuard as a seasonal topper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBoat Shampoo – Salt Film, Foam Stability \u0026amp; Lubricating Additives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBoat shampoo\u003c\/strong\u003e like CleanMarine combines an efficient, yet material-friendly surfactant formula with controlled foaming. Salt crystals and harbor film are bound in micelles, allowing you to rinse them away without streaking. The resulting wash film remains lubricious for a long time, carries dirt out of pores and edges, and facilitates the safe movement of a wash mitt or soft deck brush. Because the formula is pH-balanced, the shine and hydrophobic effect of existing wax or spray layers are preserved – the result looks calm, clean, and feels smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication On Board – Pre-Rinse, Wash, Rinse\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e starts in the shade on cool surfaces. First, pre-rinse with fresh water until salt and loose debris run off. Dose CleanMarine according to instructions, lather it in a bucket, and wash section by section from top to bottom. For non-skid areas, move a soft brush crisscross; for smooth gelcoat\/painted surfaces, use a wash mitt in long strokes without pressure. Do not let the shampoo dry, rinse generously, and let it air dry or wipe with a clean cloth. Afterwards, perfect visible surfaces with SeaYou; clean and care for vinyl\/textile separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility \u0026amp; Care Plan – Gelcoat, Non-Skid, Protective Build-up\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e includes smooth gelcoat, high-gloss maritime painted panels, and smooth plastics. Non-skid is safely cleaned without \"smoothing\" the texture. For matte or rough special surfaces, test first and apply without pressure. For seasonal logic, apply: Pre-cleaning (AllWays) → CleanMarine as the main wash → optional PerfectOne\/WaxPolish for optical saturation → BodyGuard as a hydrophobic, quickly renewable finish. This keeps the surface cleaner for longer, makes rinsing easier, and ensures reproducible care – even with intense sun exposure and salt loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions about THE FINISHER × Koch-Chemie \"CleanMarine\" — Boat Shampoo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes CleanMarine attack existing waxes?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The pH-balanced formula is LSP-friendly and preserves wax and spray protection.
