I just pulled out my kayak after sitting in the lake for 6 months. The bottom has caked on crud which a pressure washer will not remove. Any suggestions for a cleaning agent? Thanks in advance.

What kind of pressure washer is it. If it coming from a car wash, their junk. Those won't even dirt off cars. I've got a craftsman,they even take paint off down to the bare metal if I want.

You couldn't find a better/cleaner place to keep it than the lake? Not being a snotty witch, just wondering. HawksFan03

I would try some cheap cleaning bleach expecting the crud is organic material. Cleaning bleach at Walmart about $1.75 a gallon. Lots of uses for it in Florida.

Yall are so funny! Hang the kayak from a tree and you won't have to worry about all the hard work of cleaning it. Pay a teenager to clean it. Put it in your garage. cheeeeze! Wrap it in a tarp for goodness sake! LMAO!
