Marine Salt Removal -
Protect Boats, Docks & Jet Skis from Salt
Saltwater accelerates corrosion on hulls, outboard motors, trailers, and onboard electronics faster than any other environmental factor. Salts Gone® eliminates salt at a molecular level — keeping your vessel protected season after season.
Professional-Grade Salt Removal for Every Vessel
Whether you fish offshore, cruise the coast, or dock in a saltwater marina, your boat is constantly under attack. Salt spray, brackish water, and ocean mist penetrate every surface — from gel coat and aluminum to stainless hardware and electrical connections. Salts Gone®'s chelation formula bonds to salt ions and permanently removes them, stopping corrosion before it starts.
How Salts Gone® Protects Your Vessel
Saltwater corrosion is relentless — our formula fights it at the molecular level with three layers of defense.
Chelating Agents
Chelation technology bonds to sodium and chlorine ions embedded in gel coat pores, metal surfaces, and hardware crevices — permanently breaking salt apart so it can never reform or continue corroding your vessel.
Corrosion Inhibitors
Built-in corrosion inhibitors create a protective molecular barrier on metal surfaces including outboard lower units, stainless hardware, trailer frames, and aluminum components — preventing oxidation between treatments.
Premium Surfactants
Marine-grade surfactants lift salt crystals, water spots, and brine residue from every surface while leaving a clean, streak-free finish on gel coat, glass, and painted surfaces.
Why Saltwater Is Your Boat's Worst Enemy
Saltwater is among the most corrosive natural environments on earth. A single day on the ocean exposes your boat to salt concentrations that can begin corroding unprotected metal within hours. Left untreated, salt deposits destroy outboard motors, pit stainless steel hardware, degrade gel coat, corrode electrical connections, and weaken trailer components.
The challenge with marine salt damage is that it's often invisible until the damage is severe. Salt infiltrates microscopic pores in gel coat, hides inside engine cooling passages, and crystallizes on wiring harnesses and circuit boards — all areas that a freshwater rinse cannot adequately reach.
The True Cost of Marine Corrosion
Marine industry estimates put the annual cost of corrosion-related boat repairs at over $1 billion in the United States alone. Outboard motor corrosion, trailer rust, and hardware replacement are among the most common — and most preventable — expenses boat owners face. A single corroded trailer can cost $2,000–$5,000 to repair or replace.
Why Freshwater Flushing Falls Short
Most boat owners rely on a post-trip freshwater rinse, but water alone only dissolves surface-level salt. Salt that has bonded to metal at a molecular level remains — and continues corroding long after the boat is back on the trailer. Salts Gone® breaks the ionic bond between sodium and chlorine, flushing salt from engine passages, hardware crevices, and gel coat pores where water cannot reach.
How to Use Salts Gone® on Your Boat
- Full vessel rinse: Attach the hose-end sprayer to your dock or home hose. Spray the hull, deck, hardware, trailer, and outboard from top to bottom. Allow 30 seconds of dwell time, then rinse.
- Engine flush: Connect Salts Gone® through your outboard or inboard flush port to treat cooling passages, impeller housing, and internal components.
- Trailer treatment: Spray the full trailer frame, rollers, axles, and wiring after every launch. This is where salt damage accumulates fastest.
- Electronics and hardware: Mix at 1:100 in a spray bottle for spot treatment of electrical connections, navigation equipment, and stainless fittings.
Consistent use after every saltwater outing prevents the compounding corrosion damage that leads to expensive repairs. Most boat owners see a complete return on investment within the first season through avoided maintenance costs alone.
