On a boat, the surfaces, rooms and materials used are identical to those found in a house or flat. Therefore, we invite you to refer to the corresponding sheets: kitchen, toilets, bathroom, bedroom, windows…
On the other hand, on a boat, outside, there are particularities due to the environment in which it sails or parks: the deposits left by sea spray, the droppings of sea birds as well as the use of specific materials for outside fittings, and other fittings.
In this fact sheet, find out how to clean the deck of a boat and small boats without cabins:

 

Fly cleaning ("Store" covering a dining or resting area on the deck)

1
For deep cleaning, I use the large rectangle brush, topped with the orange square. Depending on the height, I fit 1 or 2 extensions. Pour éliminer les déjections d’oiseaux, la mousse ou les taches, j’utilise le pistolet seul (sans accessoire) que je positionne perpendiculairement au fly pour décoller et désincruster les saletés.
2
I wipe it off with the sandy glove.
3
I maintain daily with the telescopic broom and the wet blue MOP, well wrung out.

Cleaning of tables and benches made of skai

1
For a thorough cleaning, I use the large rectangle brush, topped with the orange square
2
For regular maintenance, I "spray" with the spray gun alone (without accessories) and wipe with the sand glove.
3
On a daily basis, I use the pre-moistened and well wrung out towel for a quick clean.

Cleaning of the control station and handrails

1
I "steam" with the spray gun alone (without accessories) and wipe with the sand glove. For a glossy finish, I use the Crystal.
2
On a daily basis, I use the double-sided Crystal glove to clean and shine.

Interstices, fittings contours

1
I use the short or long Sprayer to remove dirt in the gaps and contours of the fittings, if necessary with the small round brush. I "caress" the surface without rubbing.

Cleaning of vertical walls

1
For deep cleaning, I use the large rectangle brush, topped with the orange square (or the triangle brush depending on the size of the surface). Depending on the height, I fit 1 or 2 extensions.
2
On a daily basis, for a quick cleaning, I use the moistened and well wrung out top towel.
