I only use this stuff. I've tried a few others inc. concentates and have found this the best. Be careful with it though. Only use 50:50 dilute with water. Apply with rubber gloves and a big sponge, rinse straight away. Don't let it dry on the tubes. Do only half of one side at a time. When dry the tubes will need some sort of protectant pretty soon as they'll be stripped bare.

What tube protector do you use?

Do you seal the black rubber?

I found the pre mix a bit too dilute - get the concentrate and mix it 50/50 - much easier and cheaper!!!

Use a soft scrubbing brush - Tesco have got some perfect ones - great for alloy wheels as well.....

I was using Polymarine which was good, but tedious to apply. Now been converted to Amoral 303 (spray bottle) which is best sourced from hot-tub suppliers as it's a general UV protectant as used on hot-tub lids.
