Cleaning & Maintaining a Canoe

I bought some good wash/cleaner for my canoe.
As you can see in the first pic the side i washed compared to the other Shocked

big differance.
And also bought some good quality Oxidation/Wax cleaner.
And again you can see in the second pic the Big differance once oxidation is removed then waxed Cool

This thing should slip the water now like whale blubber Laughing

I also put on some personalization to my canoe. { Wilderness Way B.C west coast }
you can't see the west coast in the pic though. Cool

And believe or not this Canoe is 36 years old ! Shocked

I bought it from the guy that made in High School when he was 17, he is 52 now. He stored it well and never left it outside in the sun etc. He did about $200 worth of work on it 10 years ago, lol. New gunnels & paint.
