Tower Cleaning ??

[Dave K]

Hey All,

I have a Roswell tower and it seems that there are some specs of something on the surface. Is there some sort of a clear coat protectant that is coming off??

Just wondering if any one can give me a suggestion to get this tower gleaming. Thanks

Looks like bug residue to me Steel wool and some windex?

This stuff works great.

I had a similar problem with my Skylon Swoop Tower on my 2004 VLX. I used Meguiar's Marine/RV Metal Polish. It worked great!

Yep those are bugs for sure. Nevr-Dull is awesome stuff for cleaning up chrome or stainless!

Windex works great to get the bugs off.

What about bug stuff on a black tower?

I'd give Windex or rubbing alcohol a try.

I've been using Babes spray wax. They seem to come off easier too.

I need to wax our tower - I bet that would help them come off easier. Our tower is brand new and the first time out we towed it home right after sunset. The bugs are everywhere at dusk in the spring. It took me a while with some rubbing alcohol to get them all off. I still need to take care of the truck. I need to get some speaker socks for the Pro-80's before I have to tow it home in the dark with them!

Seems it was a issue with the clear coat and NOT bugs. The problem was not only on the front but on the back of the tower as well. I usually put shrinkwap the tower when i tow it on the highway anyways...however...

I just picked up the boat from the shop as we just got the tower powder coated, and it looks absolutely sick!! Pics to follow ( if it ever stops raining)
