How do I Care For My Kayak

[Slazmo]

In the states i think 303 Aerospace Protectant comes in a specific kayak, sup, canoe spray application.

Here is Aus, just the normal 303 applied with a lightly soaked brush applied to rough finished kayak surfaces and drag off any excess with a thin rectangular sponge and allow time for the product to soak in.

Those cheap chinese kayak covers off eBay are pretty good value for covering kayaks.

Just spray it off every time your done on a water way.

Or don't. I use mine and then drag it behind the garage. Drag it out next time I want to go kayaking. Once in a blue moon I'll take a rag to the launch area and quickly wash the crud off it.

I rinse mine off with a garden hose. Afterward, I like to take a lawn/leaf blower and blow it relatively dry to get all of the water out of the tracks, out of rod holders, etc. I take a cloth and give it a quick final drying and store it in my garage out of the sun.

It makes a difference putting them away clean.

I do use the 303 product but that only needs to be done infrequently.

I keep mine relatively clean, but mud and dirt happens.

I just do a quick fresh water rinse whether I've been in fresh or salt water. Sometimes a quick wipe to get the pollen/junk off.
