Maintenance Guide

First 48 Hours

• Do not wash or expose to water — let the coating cure fully
• Avoid rain, dew, and sprinkler exposure if possible
• Keep vessel covered if possible
• Do not use vessel if not essential

Monthly Maintenance

• Rinse hull with fresh water weekly to remove salt spray and contaminants
• Hand wash with pH-neutral marine soap and microfiber wash mitt
• Dry with microfiber towel to prevent water spots
• Apply ceramic coating topper spray every 2-3 months for enhanced hydrophobic effect

Seasonal Care

• In saltwater: rinse more frequently (2-3x per week)
• After heavy storms or debris exposure, wash immediately
• Use ceramic coating top-up spray seasonally (spring and fall)
• Professional maintenance wash recommended annually

What to Avoid

• Harsh abrasive brushes — use soft microfiber only
• Acidic or alkaline cleaners — stick to pH-neutral marine soap
• Wax or sealers — they interfere with coating longevity
• High-pressure washers — hand wash only
