Does anyone know somebody who removes barnacles from props. I have two Volvo 4.3 Ocean Series and the props are covered in Barnacles. I live in Delray Beach, Fl. I am new to keeping a boat in the water as I previously had my boat at Marina One which was destroyed in Wilma both my boat and the marina. I had the bottom painted but the props are S/S and it looks like barnacles love them .

A buddy bought a Bravo 1 prop covered with barnacle on ebay. WD-40 and they cleaned up nicely. Whatever solvent is in the formulation causes the adhesion to fail.
