SCRATCH REPAIR
OUTBOARD EXTERNAL FINISH
Surface scratches on the upper and lower Your outboard’s upper and lower engine cov-
engine covers can be polished out with buff- ers use molded-in color technology, provid-
ing compound.
Treat affected areas using these steps:
ing a deep, durable gloss with maximum
ultraviolet (sunlight) protection.
The high gloss finish will show polish marks
when viewed closely in certain light condi-
tions. This glossing is NORMAL.
Periodically, wash the entire boat and out-
board with soapy water and apply a coat of
automotive wax. Leave the engine cover in
place when washing the outboard.

Sand the affected area with 800-grit sand-
paper.
Wet sand the area with 1200-grit sandpa-
per.
Using a composite material buffing com-
pound, polish the area, closely following

IMPORTANT: When trailering your outboard,
DO NOT cover the engine with canvas—it
will dull the finish of the outboard’s engine
covers.
IMPORTANT: Your Dealer has the profes-
sional materials to properly repair scratches.
Do not attempt to paint over marks or
scratches in the composite material. See
your Dealer to repair any deep scratches or
gouges.
SUBMERGED OUTBOARD
If your outboard has been under water, have
it serviced immediately upon recovery. If
immediate service is unavailable, resub-
merge it in fresh water to avoid prolonged ex-
posure to the atmosphere.
HULL FINISH
The condition of your boat’s bottom affects
performance. Marine growth or bottom paint-
ing may reduce speed and fuel efficiency.
After submersion, all boat and engine electri-
cal, fuel, and oiling systems must be inspect-
ed for signs of water intrusion. Your Dealer
should perform this service.
For maximum performance, keep the boat’s
running surface clean by rinsing it with fresh
water and wiping it dry. Apply Evinrude anti-
corrosion spray to any surface subject to cor-
rosion, but avoid the anti-corrosion anode(s).
