    Prepping for Lake Travis hard water

    Looking for some advice. We are headed to Lake Travis in a few weeks and the boat will stay in the water overnight for 3 nights. Lake Travis is a beautiful lake but the heavy limestone content of the water leaves some terrible spots and waterline marks, especially on a black hulled boat. Went last year and spent hours when we returned cleaning with a vinegar mix to get it clean. Just wondering if their is a product I should us before going that may make the clean up a little easier. Thanks for any tips on how to prevent or clean up these hard water stains.

    Thanks.

    A friend of mine applies an acrylic/teflon compound on airplanes for a living, he also did it do his 230. It did a good job keeping it clean for a good while. Not cheap though.

      Napa sells a product called ON/OFF. Wipe it on and you see the grime disappear---but it is made for water with tannic acid in it. Maybe similar? Chemists chime in....
