The usual loads from sunscreen, sweat and salt shed better day-to-day, because the surface no longer „clings“ and residue wipes off quicker.

RubMarine works as a finely dosed polymer emulsion: it smooths the microtexture of unpainted plastics and rubber, dries to a satin matte and leaves a natural grip. Textured areas (instrument hoods, hatch frames) look more even without that \"smeared-on\" appearance. Because no oily layer stays behind, the surface grabs less dust and harbour haze – the dressing stays practical day-to-day, even with frequent handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing it on consoles, seals \u0026amp; trims\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e comes down to three steps: clean thoroughly (AllWays\/CleanMarine), let it dry fully, then lay RubMarine down thin with an applicator or microfibre cloth. Spread it evenly in small sections, let it flash off for 1–2 minutes and buff to a satin matte with a fresh side of the cloth. Pick up any excess on edges and screw feet straight away. Don't leave dressing sitting on gelcoat overhangs, glass or polycarbonate – wipe residue off right away. Floors, steps and anti-slip decks stay off-limits so nothing turns slippery. Work in the shade and keep off hot surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRoutine \u0026amp; compatibility – gelcoat, vinyl \u0026amp; care plan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoutine \u0026amp; compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: RubMarine is the care step for unpainted plastics and rubber. Vinyl upholstery you condition separately with VinylGuard; visible surfaces you clean with SeaYou. Smooth gelcoat and paint areas you protect – kept apart from the RubMarine zones – with BodyGuard for easy hydrophobic upkeep. Depending on use (sun, swimming, harbour life) you refresh RubMarine thin every 4–8 weeks. In between, a damp cloth is often enough, since salt and fingerprints cling less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions about THE FINISHER × Koch-Chemie \"RubMarine\" — plastic care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhere do I use RubMarine?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn unpainted boat plastics and rubber parts: consoles, Rub Rails, seals, instrument hoods, hatch frames.
