    Cleaner

    Do any of you AVX owners have a suggestion on a cleaner/protective product to apply to make clean up at landing a little easier. I was wondering about sharkhide but it’s for aluminum. As these boats are painted.
    Thanks

    I use Lucas Slick Mist - Marine. Works AWESOME on my 1980.

    Since the finish paint/clear is basically automotive paint with one more molecule added so Vexus can trademark it like it is magical, I would use any automotive detail. I plan on sealing mine with Xzilon then wipe down with Honda Detail at the ramp. That is what I used on my last tin rig for 15 years. If Vexus wants to chime in here they can post the product sheet and the SDS for the finishes.

    I wipe down my 1880 after each outing with Slick Mist, keeps the boat looking brand new.

    It really does keep it looking new. Also once you have wiped it down a few times, everything just wipes right off. I mainly fish rivers and I am always in the back of creeks. On a white boat the scum lines is very noticeable......comes right off once on the trailer.

    you are right Jonesslk, it does make it easier if you wipe it down soon after fishing trip.

    If you happen to have a Walmart near by, they carry Lucas Slickmist, for $7.50 a bottle.
