Hi all,
I have a question or two about canoe clean up. I will be putting my canoe in at my mooring slip come Monday the 4th of April. Post season I like to use a solution of chlorine bleach to kill any life forms that are in or on the hull however my boat is stored outside, covered, for the winter so I was thinking that cleanup prior to putting it on the water for the first time should just be dawn dishwashing liquid. Is there anyting else I should do to it or is that alright?

Also I would like to wax the hull and buff it. I have some really high grade car wax and a good buffer that will burnish if that is what I want. What type of wax should I use and should i burnish the hull. Oh yeah the hull is a ploly plastic hull.

thanks,
eric
