Preferred boat soap?

Liberty44140

ive been a long time believer in stat brite deck wash with ptfe but I have to admit, I see other boats that come out cleaner. I’ve heard that loca boat l detailers use dawn dish soap but I’ve read that dawn takes your wax off. Anyone here use Meguires boat soap or meguires boat Gel wash? Been reading good things about them. Thx

I use the west marine boat soap, either the pink or the orange. Does a great job.

IMAR Yacht soap so it doesn’t remove all of my hard work.

Well, I've been using the same starbrite for a couple years now and been happy with it.  Meguiars does make good stuff though.

I have had good results with Meguiers, and yes dish soap will remoe wax just like on a car.

Thanks for all of the comments! Good discussion on a cold January week I think I may give the Meguires a try but definitely interested in the stuff Ray posted.

@Liberty44140 Thanks for the post.  I ordered 6 bottles after reading your post about the bargain price at Walmart.  It shipped for free and arrived yesterday.  I tried it on my car today and it really works great.  Lots of suds with just a couple of ounces in the bucket full of warm water.
