Using Comet on non-skid surface

[Hungry1]

I struggled finding good cleaners for the non-skid and eventually found my way to the Parker website. Under the FAQ section they recommend using Comet on the non-skid. I mentioned this on another forum and guys are claiming that Comet is a terrible choice and will cause long-term damage to the deck. Does anyone else use Comet? I really like the way it works on the deck with minimal elbow grease and I've been trying very hard to keep my boat in flawless condition. I will be a bit annoyed if Parker suggested the use of something on their boats that will have negative long-term effects.

I used it on my previous boat with no problem. I use a product called Super Clean in a spray bottle (purple/black spray). I saw a friend of mine using it on his 2010 Cad to remove bugs, been using it since new with no problems.

I have used Bar Keeper's Friend for years and it works great. Not as abrasive as Comet. Add some Clorox to the mix and the deck comes out bright as well as clean.

I second the BKF but wouldn't hesitate to use Comet.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the response. Makes me feel a bit better.

I've use THE WORKS bowl cleaner to remove some pretty stubborn stains. I've also used it on the outside to clean the hull, but it takes the wax off. It's pretty cheap at the dollar store.

I have found a Magic Eraser sponge is a great tool with any cleaner.
