How do you stop Barnacle bill and his buddies growing all over your lower engine, trim tabs etc in yearly moorage?

Are you leaving it in all year with just a March/June application? How thick are you leaving it on. On a kid a little goes a long way . I'm assuming you want to try to put some kind of layer on there.

I put it on in march and then just touch up again in june . yes it almost lasts the whole year and reapply again ... works great on my trim tabs. I put it on pretty thick
I used to put a thin layer on my outdrive . worked great best part when I power washed it clean looked like a brand new drive again clean as a babys bottom LOL

Would ceramic type wax work? For some strange reason, I took the prop off my motor cleaned it and put a couple of coats of ceramic wax on it. When the weather gets nicer, the motor comes out from my living room, onto my diy outboard stand where I can work on it and see if it works.

Oh, I remember now, owners manual says to polish with car wax.
Plus I was bored.

Diaper cream for the win.

I'll report back in a few months. Put it on both boats.
