I would imagine that a gallon of Summer's Eve would cost more than $38. You literally can make your own for pennies. So what you are saying is that this is nothing more than a feminine hygiene system? |

So what you are saying is that this is nothing more than a feminine
hygiene system? Most boats are referred to as "she" aren't they? :-) Makes perfect sense to me. What scares me though, is that you are up on the product names! :- --Mike "Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ...

Wouldn't claim to be well versed on what goes into the stuff that goes int....(never mind). It's also possible to substutute distilled water for deionized and get close to the same results. (Referring, once again, to an engine.) Deionized water has all of the little mineral elements (ions) filtered out through a reverse osmosis filter, while distilled water is purified strictly by the generation, condensation, and reclamation of steam. In either case, stripping the fresh water of any existing mineral load increases the water's capacity to absorb sodium and other minerals present in sea salt and the vinegar "knocks it loose". :-) Distilled water is available for under a buck a gallon in most grocery stores. (I use it for battery fills). Deionized water is harder to come by, but if your boat has an RO watermaker the final product might be pretty close. Other good sources for deionized water are automotive detail shops and drive-through car washes. Deionized water provides a superior rinse for automotive and marine finishes with less risk of "spotting". The RO filters for creating deionized water are expensive to buy, operate, and service so don't be surprised if the guy at the car wash or the detail shop wants a couple of bucks for a few gallons of rinse water. If you're having your car washed or detailed, you might be able to talk the operator out of a couple of gallons for free. |
