Tube Cleaning

We just bought our first rib 3 weeks ago. She is a 6.8M Ribcraft Offshore with a 170 HP Inboard Volvo engine. She is 7 years old and in really good condition, kept under cover the whole time not in use. We want to keep her in the same condition and we dont know what the best thing to use to clean and maintain the tubes. Any suggestions much appreciated. Ta Frank
