Boat Clean Plus can be used for regular cleaning on roplene. If you get bottom growth (you’re not supposed to on roplene which is part of the HDPE family of plastics) you can safely remove it with Green Genie. If marine growth is an issue, you can protect the bottom with VS721, which will also improve the performance of the boat and also reduce salt attachment. Use EZ Vinyl Cleaner on the seats and protect them with Vinyl Guard.

Thanks for your question,
