Everything you need to know about Salts Gone®, our combo packs, best uses, and marine applications.
You already know that salt is corrosive to your boat, trailer, reels, etc. You also know it's unavoidable, and cleaning the boat is the worst part of the day!
Salts Gone® is an instantly acting chelating agent for salt/brine. There are three primary components to it:
- Chelating agents for the various forms of salt
- Corrosion inhibitors to prevent future salt from causing further damage
- Surfactants (soap)
Salts Gone® is:
PH Neutral
- This means it's safe on any material you would find on a boat, including metals, glass, paint, ceramic coatings, wax, vinyl wraps, SeaDek, electronics, screens, reels, trailers, etc.
Highly Concentrated
- Each gallon makes one hundred gallons of finished solution (1:100)
Can be applied with or without running water
- Running water: Hose End Sprayers, injector boxes, pressure washers
- No running water: Pump Sprayers, Battery operated sprayers
Salts Gone® does not emulsify oil
This means it's safe to use on your reels

Yes, Salts Gone® is eco-friendly, biodegradable, and non-hazardous. It’s safe for use around docks, water runoff areas, and the environment.
Salts Gone is meant to be used on an "as needed" basis. We recommend using Salts Gone® after every trip on the water.
Frequency for other surfaces (trailers, vehicles, docks, etc.) depends on how often they’re exposed to salt.
Not if you're using our Hose End Sprayer. It does the mixing for you.
If you're using a pump sprayer or injector, dilute at a 1:100 ratio (that’s 1.28 oz per gallon of water).
No, Salts Gone® was specifically designed not to emulsify oil, making it safe on lubricated parts like reels, hinges, and bearings.
Salts Gone® is not designed to remove rust. However, many users report that soaking lightly rusted parts in undiluted concentrate can help lift surface rust thanks to the corrosion inhibitors.
For simple salt removal, no scrubbing is needed. Just spray and rinse.
For heavy dirt or grime, a quick brush or sponge may help activate the built-in surfactants.
Usually not. Salts Gone® contains surfactants (soap), so most boaters replace their boat wash with it.
For heavy-duty messes (like fish blood and guts), you'll need something extra (check out our fishing wipes).
Water only moves salt, it doesn't eliminate it.
Salts Gone® breaks the chemical bond of salt on contact and leaves corrosion inhibitors behind. Rinsing alone just pushes salt into tight spaces where rust thrives.
