SHARK GEL

No, Shark Gel will not harm your gel coated or Hull Pro or coated vessel! Feel free to apply directly to your Hull Pro-protected vessel where you find rust or oxidation and see instant results. Do NOT apply Shark Gel directly to bare gelcoat or an uncoated hull as this may etch the surface.

NO. You should use Shark Gel on bare metal surfaces or a Hull Pro-treated hull. Do NOT use Shark Gel on ceramic as it will etch the surface. Do NOT use Shark Gel near natural wood as it will permanently stain wood surfaces. It is always important to test a small area to ensure Shark Gel’s compatibility prior to application.

Unlike spray-on or liquid cleaners, Shark Gel is a thick, clear gel. This makes it easier to apply for vertical or slanted surfaces without dripping. Because the gel adheres better to these surfaces, Shark Gel works without having users waste the product by overapplying.

Yes. It is important that Shark Gel is applied with caution and the correct PPE. Always apply while wearing gloves in a well ventilated environment. Do not inhale or ingest and avoid contact with skin. See our Safety Data Sheet here. If contact with the skin is made, skin irritation may occur. Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.

No. Shark Gel has been used in the construction industry as well to clean rust and stains from concrete hardscapes, but we have seen amazing results when using Shark Gel in the marine industry, specifically with trim tabs and to clean growth off of a Hull Pro-treated hull.

No. Unlike other market competitors, Shark Gel contains no hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is very harsh, may contain harmful fumes and vapors during application, and may cause chemical burns if not used with the proper safety precautions. Shark Gel’s active ingredient is phosphoric acid, which is less volatile to use, but still fast-acting enough to get the job done!
