Cleaning, Care & Storage
Washing and waxing the boat hull and deck regularly will
extend the life and beauty of your Supra. It is a good routine
to rinse your boat with fresh water after each day’s use.
It is recommended that the hull and deck be cleaned and
waxed after every 25 hours of use. This will decrease water
friction and lesson the potential for staining or spotting on the
gelcoat surface.
When the original gelcoat shine cannot be restored by waxing,
the shine may be restored by hand buffing with a commercial
polishing compound. Be sure to apply a new coat of wax
containing Carnauba over the area that has been polished.
IMPORTANT: Porcelain cleaning powders are too abrasive
for use on gelcoat and may cause permanent
discoloration if used. Household detergents containing
ammonia or chlorine should not be used on gelcoat.
Never use acetone or ketone solvents to clean your boat
finish.
Fiberglass Care
The easiest way to preserve the beauty of your boat is to
keep it clean by frequent washing. Wash the boat with luke
warm or cold water. Wipe the boat down immediately after
washing to avoid water spots. Avoid using hot water or washing
your boat in direct sunlight. Avoid using strong soaps or
chemical detergents. To avoid spotting, all cleaning agents
should be thoroughly rinsed from the surface promptly and
not allowed to dry on the finish.
Washing Your Boat
Use a sponge or other soft material to wash and wax the rub
rail. To wax, use a commercial automotive bumper wax.
NOTICE: When tying up to a dock or another boat, always
use cushioned fenders (dock bumpers) to protect your boat
from hard surfaces.
Rub Rail Care
All Supra windshields are constructed of tempered safety glass
to ensure passenger safety. The glass surfaces should be
cleaned regularly to ensure that visibility is not obstructed.
Use a commercial glass cleaner to remove any spotting or
stubborn stains that develop on the windshield. Never use
abrasive cleaners on glass surfaces.
