"...Reviewer's choice:
Island
Girl®; Cleansing Lotion worked best on the hypalon inflatable
(versus
8 other products) and is excellent for a multitude of other uses,
such as cleaning fenders ( better then acetone we found ) and pretty
much
everything else." Reprinted from Longitude 122, California, July,
1995.
GO FOR THE GLOW
I HAD ALREADY RESIGNED MYSELF to the reality that my once-white
(hypalon)
dinghy would forever match the gray-weathered and aged pre-rot look of
the sadly-neglected pilings of the old local marina. As a last
resort
I saturated a paper towel with Island Girl's SEA
GLOW™ Cleansing
Lotion and Conditioner and turned on the elbow grease*. I kept at it
until
successive paper towels - and the dinghy stayed white.
Other that saying the product includes antioxidants, mildew inhibitors
and brighteners, the company wonât say what SEA GLOW's
active ingredients are. But they do swear up and down that it's
environmentally
safe. What the heck, the stuff works! A 16 Oz bottle costs
$20.00.

grease, ALW]
Rub a Dub Dub, Thanks for the Scrub
Sorry guys, she won't personally come and scrub your hull (picture
not shown here). But the Island Girl system for cleaning, maintaining
&
preserving marine plastics will make your gelcoat look like new and
keep
it that way. The Island Girl System also restores the original
softness,
color and durability to old vinyl and hypalon. Use it on new products
to
prevent aging in the first place. For details visit the website at

So What's This About?
[Picture of bottle on sealed deck, except for one small area, not shown
here]
See that shiny white area next to the bottle? That's where Non-Skid
Sealantú wasn't used. Everywhere else, the
water
beads up, which means that oil, paint, varnish, soot, etc, can't
penetrate
either, making your non-skid much easier to keep clean. It's another
great ISLAND GIRL® product. Call 800 441 4425 or

Write up in an English Boating Newspaper
called “All
at Sea” Issue 54, June 2002.
Turns out that one of the editors of the paper is a long
distance
mail order customer!
“ Island Girl Products from Hawaii are one of the best finds
of this restoration. A range of powerful and ecofriendly cleaners, GRP
(UK for “gelcoat”) and plastic conditioners and polishes that give
superb
results and are which are simply applied using paper towel! The only
drawback
is that they are only available mail order – but check them out at
www.IslandGirlProducts.com”
