    Eucalyptus Wool Wash, cleans all trace and smell for me.

    Sounds bad, but leaves the boats soft and Cuddley.
    Apples mate I always knew you had a softer side

      An aerosol full of auto brake cleaner worked for me. Didnt remove the scorch mark showing on the bottom of the hull though!!!

        Got rid of all discolouration and 99% of smell with Eagle One All tire & rim cleaner. Rinse in shower stall with soap & water.

        Very clean, very happy again!!

            Methyl hydrate, use it once and you will never use anything else again.
            I try and avoid paste eaters.

                no, aka canadian gas line anti-freeze. It is also used to thin shelac, so you just wipe it on and wipe it off. Found it in paint department in canada 2 years ago at wallyworld.

                        Just tested something else on a friends boat coming in for repairs: good old 2+2 Carb cleaner. Cleans a lot better than oven cleaners, being focused on similar residues instead of organic ones...

                          A couple of my hulls have that nice smell of dead esc.
                          I approach the whole thing in two ways.

                          1. Let it be and the smell eventually goes away, wife says otherwise but I get used to it.
                          2. Leave it as is, because it may happen again soon !!
                          See it....find the photos.....sketch it it....build it........with wood
