What has everyone tried? I heard Lime-Away works, and I have tried a mix of vinegar and water. Wasn't that great. Parts of this motor are a plastic whereas another is metal. Just want it to look like new. It is only 2 years old. Thanks.

Use "Works" toilet bowl cleaner, in the bottle not the spray bottle. Simply put a few drops on a rag, and wipe off. When done with an area, wipe down with soap and water, and towel dry. I do it all the time to my boats, motors, fishing rods, etc..
Works great, you'll be really impressed.

The 50% vinegar/water mix works well...but you may have to take a nylon brush to the spots as well...at least that is what I end up doing on my yamaha... you won't have to scrub very hard..just enough to agitate the solution into the water spots. Wipe dry. If some are still there, just re-do it on the areas that need it...

Tried the Works today and boy did it do the job.Didnt have to go over any areas at all. Thanks again. And it was less money than the Lime away too.

The Works is amazing for getting those hard water stains off of boats, motors, rods, etc....

I just alway make sure to have a bucket of soapy water near or a hose so I can hit it with some water when I am done cleaning it. I'm glad you tried it and liked it!!!

I know I put more than a few drops on a rag but it worked. Looks like new again. I tried it on the transom of the boat when I was out there, but didnt see much of a difference. Maybe I'll try it again. I've go to tell the guy at the dealer about it!

It's really nothing new, I've been using it for about 5 years now.

I bought some stuff called "Zing" from Nelson Marine in White Bear Lake, and it rocks. Harsh stuff, though. Be careful with the strength of the mix. Ten parts water to one part Zing works for most of the crud. It's basically Hydrochloric acid, so wear some gloves and rinse quickly after a quick wipe down of the dirty area. Couldn't believe how quickly it cleaned the whole boat.
