Cleaning on yachts and boats is an important part of vessel maintenance. Specialized mops and tools are used for this task. Yacht and boat mops provide effective cleaning on the vessel, ensuring comfort and hygienic conditions for crew and guests.
But still the main advantage of specialized hands brushes and scrubber heads is that they:
- ensure the safety of surfaces that can become deformed from adhering dirt and sand, technical oils, food, etc.;
- even with thorough mechanical cleaning of particularly contaminated areas, they do not damage the treated surfaces of the yacht;
- do not tear out soft fibers from the deck covering, do not leave scratches on glass, do not wear out protective layers (anodizing, waxing, impregnation, etc.);
- depending on the material and design, they can be used for surfaces made of different materials: wood, fiberglass, metal, polymers, including acrylic for glass, etc.
For boat cleaning it is better to use various types of mops designed to effectively clean the deck and interior. These can be compact folding mops with soft attachments for gentle cleaning, as well as more powerful models with hard brushes or mops. Mops can also be designed to fit the boat's features, such as the size and configuration of the deck, to provide convenience and efficiency during the cleaning process.
Types And Characteristics of Deck Hand Models Brushes & Scrubber Heads
Classification of deck mops, brushes and scrubber heads is as follows: by the material of the washing (cleaning) part, by the design and by material of the handle.
Based on the material of the cleaning part, mops are divided into the following types:
- classic rope, made from loose cotton ropes;
- tape made of polyvinyl chloride (other names - PVC, polyvinyl chloride, etc.);
- made of artificial bristles (polystyrene and other polymers) of varying hardness for different surfaces;
- pads (napkins) made of sheep wool for the care of delicate surfaces;
- microfiber pads (cloths) for final care of glass and other acrylic surfaces.
Soft Bristles
Very soft brushes are used for gentle cleaning of painted surfaces, fiberglass boat parts and parts, gel or wax coated surfaces.
Soft brushes are ideal for washing textile and non-woven materials - awnings, covers for mattresses and pillows on sun loungers, etc.
Medium Hard Brushes
Mops and brushes with medium bristles are ideal for cleaning textured surfaces such as non-slip mats and flooring.
They can also be used along with soft bristle brushes for more effective cleaning of covers and awnings, also these are also suitable for washing the sides of fiberglass yachts and boats.
Hard Bristles
Stiff bristle brushes are designed for heavy-duty cleaning of heavily soiled surfaces such as non-slip surfaces and wood decks, particularly common wood decks such as teak.
Effectively cleaning the surface from dirt, the stiff bristles of specialized hands brushes and scrubber heads, however, they do not scratch the surface being treated and do not deform the soft fibers of the wood. Brushes not intended for deck work on a yacht will, of course, clean the teak deck of dirt, but along with sand and grease, they will also remove some of the soft fibers. At first glance, this will not be noticeable, but in the future sand will clog into these “gaps”, technical and household pollution will accumulate, continuing to thin the wood layer. And after just a short time, the deformation of the deck wood covering will already be noticeable to the naked eye.
Such deformation is excluded if you use hand brushes and scrubber heads even with hard bristles, but specially made for the care of non-slip fiberglass or wood-coated yacht decks. These models can be used for cleaning with detergents and slightly acidic cleaning solutions.
Removable Scrubber Heads
We would like to draw your attention to models with removable working modules. They have one handle, and the working parts - brushes, sponges, pads made of wool, textiles and non-woven materials - are replaceable. This is much more convenient, since there is no need to store three full-size mops in limited areas of the yacht.
Replaceable heads are plastic heads that do not corrode or rot from exposure to water and do not mold. They can be supplemented with bristles of varying degrees of hardness or other types of washing parts (microfiber, wool, textiles, cotton ropes, etc.)
The topRik marketplace has models with removable modules. The set may include brushes with different bristle hardness (extra soft, medium hard and hard), pads made of different materials (sheep wool, microfiber), napkins for final sanding or drying.
Moreover, in our marketplace you can purchase any replacement head, either separately or together with the base for the mop - articulated, solid, plastic or aluminum.
On some models, a hook can be attached to the common handle to create a hook for lifting of mooring buoy.
Classification of Hand Brushes by Handle Type
In addition to the standard handle, various deck brush options can be mounted on a telescopic handle, which can be made of various materials. This can be a molded polyethylene block that is not exposed to ultraviolet radiation, shock and mold, as well as corrosion.
Metal handles for marine mops are also rust-proof because they are made of anodized aluminum, which does not corrode.
Nuances of Cleaning on Small Vessels
Cleaning on small boats has its own problems due to the limited space and characteristics of the vessel. To ensure efficient cleaning, compact mops are often used that can be easily maneuvered in tight spaces. It is also important to consider the marine environment, so mops must be designed to handle water and corrosion-resistant materials.
How to Maintain and Care for Yacht Mops to Extend Their Lifespan
To extend the life of yacht and boat mops, it is important to monitor their condition after each cleaning. After use, mops should be thoroughly rinsed and dried to avoid corrosion and mold, especially for models with wooden handles and cotton ropes.
It is also recommended to regularly check the condition of the bristles, replacing them, if necessary, to ensure effective cleaning and maintain the appearance of the vessel, as well as not to damage the surfaces with a nozzle with worn bristles.
FAQ
How to choose the right brush or scrubber head for the surface of my yacht?
Choosing the right brush or scrubber head depends on the dimensions of the boat (possible storage location), but the main thing is what type of surface you are going to process with their help.
For delicate surfaces, nozzles with extra-soft bristles are more suitable. After washing with such a brush, the surface of an acrylic mirror or window, for example, can be treated with a microfiber attachment, and the surface covered with wax can be treated with a sheepskin attachment.
For fiberglass decks and sides, a medium-hard bristle attachment is suitable if this is just regular cleaning. But if there are more serious stains (oil stains, marks from improper shoes, ketchup drips), then you can use attachments with stiff bristles, because in this case you cannot do without specialized detergents.
