14.2.10.1 Keel Maintenance for Cast Iron (where
applicable)
The cast iron keel (upper section only on some
models) was coated with an epoxy primer before
leaving Hunter Marine. You will find that as with
most items, particularly underwater gear, ongoing
maintenance will probably be required during sea-
sonal or routine haulouts.
The epoxy primer used on your boats Keel or
upper section was manufactured by International
Marine Coatings. The product numbers used are as
Follows:
Intergrade 269 Epoxy Primer / Tie Coating
Color / EGZ088 – Red Base
Converter / Curing Agent – EGA 089
The above products should be applied according
to the manufactures printed instructions. For more
information you may wish to visit their website at

by email to Interluxtechnicalservice@international-
paint.com .
Compatibility of product should be investigated if
other brands or types of Epoxy Coatings are pre-
ferred by the boat owner or repair facility.
14.2.11 Flexiteek
Listed below are specific instructions for the maintenance
of your Flexiteek. These instructions are direct from the
vendor Control Masters.
“Your Flexiteek deck is low maintenance and never needs
oiling or special sealants. The on board shoe traffic
amount will determine how often you will need to rinse or
wash your deck. Flexiteek is stain resistant. Most spills
will brush away with soap and water. (Simple Green is
one recommended soap brand.) Should a chemical stain
be left to dry out and soap is not enough, then remove
it with a piece of 60-grit sandpaper on a sanding block
going along the grain pattern. Your deck panels are not
a laminate so a light sanding will not harm the surface.
No sealant is ever necessary after sanding either. Blend
toned by lightly sanding the surrounding area parallel to
the caulk lines by applying strokes to the surface in one
direction.
Flexiteek may be pressure cleaned. Pressure cleaning is
effective, if necessary, to lighten the tone of a deck should
you notice any shading has occurred which may take
place in regions close to the Equator. You may choose
to sand with 60-grit sandpaper on a sanding block as
described to restore to the original tone. Only apply light
pressure when sanding for the best results. Unlike real
teak, only minimal sanding is ever needed on Flexiteek.
Use boat shoes or no shoes at all as you normally do
already. Black sole shoes permitted on deck may scuff
any deck surface. The unique non-skid characteristic of
the deck surface will grip shoes and feet when wet.
Do Not place hot metals on Flexiteek decks. Treat your
Flexiteek deck with the care you would give a teak deck
(except oiling)!
Acetone must never be used to clean this material sur-
face.
Do Not try to mop the surface. Use a bristled brush, rinse
with a hose and leave it to air dry. Power sanders will
distort the teak wood appearance.
Do Not oil, bleach, varnish, paint or lacquer your Flexiteek
as this will reduce the non-slip characteristic of the mate-
rial. If you wash your walls with bleach, then first spray
the Flexiteek deck with water in order to dilute bleach that
will run on the deck surface. After walls are washed, re-
spray both the wall and Flexiteek in order to rinse away
any bleach that has pooled on top of the Flexiteek. A
patch can repair any portion of the deck that becomes
damaged. Contact your regional distributor listed on our
webpage: www.flexiteek.com.”
14.3 Interior
You can usually clean the surfaces of these components
with a mild cleaner such as Fantastic. Avoid using harsh
or abrasive cleaners. Use approved marine sanitary
treatment chemicals to control the odor in the toilet and
holding tank.
14.3.2 Walls
The wood used in your boat is treated at the factory with
a multi-coat finish process. To maintain the finish, use a
good grade of furniture polish.
14.3.4 Bilges
The bilges are finished with a high quality gelcoat which
