I have been using Salt-Away for about 10 years. The stuff works so well the mechanic at the local Whaler dealer is convinced I run my boat in fresh water. I don’t!

Recently I bought a second boat, a Carolina Kit Boat, a great do-it-yourself project requiring total assembly. After getting the thing done I decided to add just one more pair of screws on the Bimini top slide assembly. The boat was hanging on davits by this time. Upon leaning over to put the nut on the bolt the boat leaned just enough to allow the cordless drill to slide from one side of the back deck to the other and into 10 feet of SALT WATER.

Thought that’s the end of my brand new drill but wanting the drill bit a few hours later I dove down and retrieved the drill & bit. Being a curious guy I decided to take the drill apart and it didn’t look too bad so I soaked it in a pail full of Salt-Away. An hour later I dried it off with compressed air and a couple hours of Florida sunshine. Putting on a new battery I was shocked that the drill worked as good as ever!

It’s been a week now and the drill is still ticking! Do you think they used Salt-Away on all those old Timex commercials?
