A cleanser called Bar Keepers Friend might do the job. It comes in a powder or 
a liquid. Does a good job on rust on stainless.

There are lots of good inexpensive rust stain removers to choose
from.solutions containing, oxalic acid and/ or phosphoric acid work well, or
a solution of 15% hydrochloric (muriatic) acid in water also works well.
Neither will hurt your deck.  Around here we can get a no name toilet bowl
cleaner that contains 23% hydrochloric acid and I use that to clean rust on
the deck that comes from my anchor chain.  Apply the stuff only where needed
and let sit for about 10-15 minutes and then rinse well with water.  If
you're not happy reapply and rinse again.  Also I find a solution of
trisodium phosphate (TSP) works well as a general deck cleaner but not so
good for rust stains.  I do my deck every spring before launch with the TSP
solution and I remove any rust stains with the toilet bowl cleaner before
the general wash down with TSP.  I have used these solutions to clean gel
coat decks and now also on the deck of Alianna which has been coated with
International Perfection 2 part polyurethane paint.  I always do the deck
cleaning before shining up the hull to avoid possible degradation of the
shine with deck wash down water, I think most people would clean from the
top down for that reason.

I understand that rust stains and those brown stains we see just above the
water line, at least we get them here in St. Margaret's Bay, are actually
very fine particulates in nature and these small particles penetrate into
the gel coat or paint.  Getting rid of them requires more than elbow
grease...it requires something that can get in there and dissolve those
micron and submicron sized particles so they can be flushed out...when
totally broken down into the constituents ions they are colourless in
solution and acidic solutions or acidic pastes like oxalic, hydrochloric and
phosphoric acids can dissolve these particles quite readily and presto...the
stain is gone.  Same for rust and manganese deposits that form in toilets
that are flushed with water which contains iron and manganese particles like
iron oxide hydroxide for example.  Useless information maybe but it's a slow
day here.

to the boat.

I had my doubts but the removed all kinds of stuff, rust stains included, even 
on the no-skid surface.  They do have a very fine abrasive quality and, 
basically wear down to nothing.  All I did was wet them, keep the surface I was 
cleaning wet and lightly rub.  I was pretty amazed.  I'll be buying more this

It is probably Fiberglass mat "print-thru".  It is noticeable on my blue 
awlgripped hull.  Surveyor said it was part of the post-mold curing process and 
was not to be worried about.  When I paint the hull again it will go away.

Stus-List Visible "grid" on the side of my C&C 37+

2012-10-22 Thread Alan Bergen
As the gel coat wears away, you can start to see the fiberglass fibers. Matte 
would have a random pattern. Since it's a grid, it sounds like roving, which is 
the glass layer that is usually laid up on top of the layer of matte (for 
strength). Did your boat ever have any fiberglass repair done to that area? If 
so, the person who did the repair job may have used roving and not matte.

Re: Stus-List Visible "grid" on the side of my C&C 37+

2012-10-22 Thread Chris Duer
If its 2" x 3" then it's likely core print and has been there for quite some
time, just not noticed. 

 

If you're going to get print (especially core) it will happen in the first
year the boat sees the sun.  Unless, of course, it's a white boat that gets
painted a dark color later in life.  Then it could cause more resin
shrinkage, which would print the core further.

 

In such a large grid (2x3), it would be core, not glass.

Re: Stus-List Deck Wax (was Deck Cleaning Help)

2012-10-22 Thread Wally Bryant
Aurora makes a wax for non-skid, called Sure Step.  I tried it once -- 
can't remember the year but it was a long time ago.  It worked *great* 
but didn't last more than a year.


The major caveat: My old gelcoat sucked that stuff up like a sponge, and 
I went through an unbelievable amount of it, making the job a very 
expensive learning experience.  Given that it only lasted a year, I 
decided that it would be much cheaper to put down new non-skid.

I just power washed my 16 year old deck and it cleaned up easily.
?
OTOH, I am looking at pretty 'flat white' (non-painted) gel-coat. 
?
Also, I need to redo my non-skid for the 2nd time soon, probably with the Kiwi
stuff which was well reviewed by Practical Sailor recently. 
?
Ideally this will be my last non-skid application and while I like the presumed 
permanence of the glue-on stuff like Treadmaster, its cost is a lot more than 
the paint-based stuff.
?
In the interim, what does the list like for 'easily' shining up the deck--the 
non-non-skid portion?? Water Phantom takes a lot of NC sun year round and will 
probably need the deck painted when I do the non-skid.

I understand that rust stains and those brown stains we see just above the 
water line, at least we get them here in St. Margaret's Bay, are actually 
very fine particulates in nature and these small particles penetrate into 
the gel coat or paint.  Getting rid of them requires more than elbow 
grease...it requires something that can get in there and dissolve those 
micron and submicron sized particles so they can be flushed out...when 
totally broken down into the constituents ions they are colourless in 
solution and acidic solutions or acidic pastes like oxalic, hydrochloric and 
phosphoric acids can dissolve these particles quite readily and presto...the 
stain is gone.  Same for rust and manganese deposits that form in toilets 
that are flushed with water which contains iron and manganese particles like 
iron oxide hydroxide for example.  Useless information maybe but it's a slow 
day here.

I had always assumed it was just Oxalic Acid thickened up a bit, but  
there must be something else in there as it works a lot better than an  
Oxalic Acid paste.  I just tried it on a lark, as I have a tendency to  
develop the worlds worst rust streaks down my transom from the mounting  
hardware on my Monitor and the teak shelf that sits underneath it.  This

a paint brush and no scrubbing other than using the brush to keep the

Re: Stus-List Visible "grid" on the side of my C&C 37+

2012-10-22 Thread Dennis C.
Edd,

If the pattern is a square weave of approx 1/4" threads, then it's the roving 
showing through the gel coat and skin out (matte) coat due to post-cure 
shrinkage.  It's cosmetic. 

Too bad we couldn't look at it at Mystic. Could have told you for sure. 

What many don't know is our plastic boats, regardless of age are still curing. 
The resin/catalyst reaction is essentially complete after a few days but 
technically continues to cure for years. Plastic shrinks with age. Sails 
shrink, even in the bag in your basement. 

Touché' had that pattern at midships. When I painted the boat last year I 
removed it by sanding with a Hutchens sander.  Hull is noticeably smoother now.

Re: Stus-List Visible "grid" on the side of my C&C 37+

2012-10-22 Thread Ken Heaton
Hi Edd,

Our hull is painted dark blue and you can see a little of the grid pattern
in places.  You have to look just so, usually from below when the boat is
out of the water.  I can't see it in the summer when the boat is in.

Dennis,

Never noticed it before Saturday -- could have been there all along. My 
head was less than a foot away and it was probably only visible because the way 
the light was hitting it. 

But, for those on the list who thought it had something to do with the 
holodeck or transporters, we think it's probably the deflector grid and shield 
generators. 




All the best,

During last night's game they showed the boats in McCovey cove and a shot of a

Woody Wax it intended for decks, I think.

tube (2 1/4 OD and wall thickness about 1/4", IIRC) It had a machined
stainless plug welded into the top for the upper nut and the emergency
tiller attachment.

The replacement rudder is built on the shaft from a similar vintage 38 LF.
It was 2 1/4 OD solid stainless bar stock with the treads and tiller
attachment machined in the top.

For those who did a post mortem on their stainless steel shafts, were they
hollow or solid?

Not sure, but I'd guess the shaft on anything less than 1 1/2" is solid and 
anything over that is probably hollow. Our shaft is 3" in diameter and has to 
be hollow with 1/4" thick walls. I dropped our rudder several years ago and I'd 
estimate it weighs around 125#, and a solid shaft of that size and length would 
be 50# heavier. The blade is 5 ft long and the SS shaft is 30" longer, so there 
is a lot of steel in there. 

A good design strategy is to to size things so if the rudder has a strike, like 
hitting a whale or a log or grounding, the rudder shaft needs to bend (not 
break) before the boat breaks, so the boat doesn't sink. I think it was in 
Skene's Elements of Design, if the rudder is strengthened, the boat needs to be 
made even stronger in that area, to survive a strike.

Danny,

Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser works on a lot of tough stains.  There may be a
marine variant as well, but I bet the grocery store variety is cheaper.

I got some sponge things from the Boston boat show this year.  They are
white and blue.  I can't remember the name but I'll check this weekend when
I go down to the boat.

I had my doubts but the removed all kinds of stuff, rust stains included,
even on the no-skid surface.  They do have a very fine abrasive quality and,
basically wear down to nothing.  All I did was wet them, keep the surface I
was cleaning wet and lightly rub.  I was pretty amazed.  I'll be buying more
this year!

Hey Jake,

I don't think many would describe him as a marine variant, maybe 
deviant... Anyhow, can be found on Sailing Anarchy, probably not cheap :)
