    Sorted by Subject Island Packet Owner's Q & A Report on Tenders Barnacle Rings On Avon Inflatable From: Clark Chalifour Received: 3/12/2002 11:55:18 AM Last season, I left my Avon inflatable in the water too long and ended up with many barnacles on its bottom. I removed the barnacles with a black Scotch pad (the type used on grills), but rings from the barnacles remain. I am hesitant to use products intended for removing barnacle rings from fiberglass hulls on a fabric inflatable. Does anyone have any experience or suggestions with respect to removing such rings from an inflatable? Clark Chalifour WINDHOVER IP-27-198 From: Don Berger Received: 3/12/2002 1:17:11 PM WM sells dilute hydrochloric acid under some obvious brand name I can't recall just now and it is advertized as safe. More important, I've used it and it works great. Hypalon and PVC are both impervious to HCL; my only reservation had been to keep it away from the seams (which isn't that difficult) as I am not sure how it would affect the glue. Don From: Sherri & Glen Wells Received: 3/13/2002 7:33:35 AM You probably won't like my method but it works. Deflate the dinghy and roll the PVC or Hapalon with your fingers as to fracture and dislodge the rings. Sometimes a plastic scraper used for snow removal can assist. I also grew a healthy crop. After this tedious effort of Cirripedia removal a priorety was established. Get the dink out of the water!
