One Step, Full Clean
Wash and protect in a single pass
Guizzo cuts through salt residue, grime and road dirt in one wash while the Carnauba it carries deposits a protective layer over fibreglass, wood, neoprene and hypalon. You step off the boat with surfaces that are clean, glossy and ready for whatever the sea throws at them next.
Why Guizzo
Marine-specific detailing, inside out
Purpose-built for boat surfaces and the conditions they face.
-
Salt and UV defence
Carnauba creates a barrier against saline mist, acid rain, bird droppings and UVA rays after every wash.
-
Gloss with every wash
The Carnauba content leaves a noticeable shine on fibreglass and treated wood without a separate polishing step.
-
Water-repellent finish
Treated surfaces shed water more readily, making post-wash drying faster and keeping the hull cleaner between washes.
-
Biodegradable formula
Surfactants meet EU regulation 648/2004/EC, making Guizzo safe to use on or near the sea without compromise.
How does it stack up?
Guizzo Boat Shampoo & Polish vs a typical cheaper boat shampoo
Most boat shampoos clean reasonably well, but leave you reaching for a separate polish or wax afterwards. Here is how Guizzo compares to the kind of budget single-purpose shampoo you will find at most chandleries.
| Feature | DetailerSA | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Cleans fibreglass, wood, neoprene and hypalon in one product | Yes | Yes |
| Carnauba wax content deposits gloss and protection during every wash | Yes | No |
| Water-repellent layer that speeds up drying and keeps the hull cleaner for longer | Yes | No |
| Biodegradable surfactants compliant with EU regulation 648/2004/EC, safe for use on or near water | Yes | No |
| Effective at lifting salt spray, bird droppings and road or marine grime | Yes | Yes |
| Requires no separate polish or wax step to achieve surface protection | Yes | No |
Built for the Marine Environment
Eco-conscious formula, real-world protection
Fra-Ber formulated Guizzo with fully biodegradable surfactants compliant with EU regulation 648/2004/EC - important when you are rinsing a hull anywhere near open water. The same formula that cleans gently also guards against saline mist, acid rain and UV fade, so responsible detailing and effective protection are not a trade-off here.

Questions
Frequently asked
What surfaces is Guizzo safe to use on?
Guizzo is formulated for all common external boat surfaces - fibreglass, wood, neoprene and hypalon. It is not recommended for bare metal or painted vehicle bodywork; it is purpose-built for marine applications.
Is Guizzo a shampoo, a polish, or both?
It is both. Guizzo functions as a foam shampoo that lifts dirt and grime by hand, and the Carnauba content it carries leaves behind added gloss and protection on every surface you wash. You clean and protect in a single step.
How do I apply Guizzo?
Dilute Guizzo in a wash bucket or foam applicator to create a rich lather, then apply by hand using a soft wash mitt or brush. Work section by section, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and allow to dry. No separate buffing step is needed - the Carnauba protection is deposited during the wash and rinse process.
Does Guizzo leave a hydrophobic layer after rinsing?
Yes. Fra-Ber describes a water-repellent effect that causes water drops to slide off treated surfaces more readily. This also makes the drying stage faster and easier after each wash.
What protection does the Carnauba in Guizzo actually provide?
The Carnauba content helps the surface resist saline mist, acid rain, bird droppings and UVA rays. In a marine environment where salt exposure is constant, this added barrier between washes is a practical benefit rather than a cosmetic one.
Is Guizzo environmentally safe to use on or near the sea?
Fra-Ber formulated Guizzo with fully biodegradable surfactants in compliance with European regulation 648/2004/EC, specifically with marine environments in mind. This makes it one of the more responsible choices for washing a boat in or near the water.
Can Guizzo be used on a boat that already has a wax or sealant applied?
Guizzo is a mild shampoo designed to clean without stripping, and the Carnauba it carries tops up rather than replaces existing protection. That said, frequent washing with any shampoo will gradually diminish the durability of a dedicated wax or sealant over time - factor in periodic full protection treatments for best results.
How does Guizzo compare to using a standard car shampoo on a boat?
Standard car shampoos are not formulated for marine materials like neoprene and hypalon, and most do not carry Carnauba protection. Guizzo is purpose-built for the range of materials found on boats and is biodegradable to a recognised EU standard - both important factors when washing close to open water.
