How to refinish my filleting board

[Redfisher]

My filleting board needs a tune up. I scrub and bleach it but the grey/black is winning. Any suggestions?

Depends on the material that it is made of ?? Possibly a good sanding with different grades of paper down to a smooth
polished surface again.

Replace it with a chunk of cedar

Sanded mine with 60 grit. Occasionally I bleach soak it with 12% concentrate.....that stuff'll make a body disappear

It didn’t melt it? That was my concern that it would just turn into goo on the sanding discs.

Not there yet. Would do butcher block before cedar if I go to wood.

I used 80grit on a random orbit palm sander and worked fine, 60 probably be better.

Butcher friend suggested using a sharp paint scraper then bleach.

Lots of options to try. Just don’t want to ruin it if possible.

Where did you get the 12%? That would be great to use.

I watched Trevor in Bamfield pour bleach all over his rig after killing 50 million pounds of fish every day. If there's anyone who knows how to get blood stains out, it's that guy.

Fuel dock in ukee, but it's around. Maybe a janitorial supply

Bilge cleaner/ water mix in a spray bottle.... simply the best

 

[Capt_Ed]

Nothing better than "30 second cleaner" especially if you leave it on for about 2-3 minutes

Tried that too. No success either.

Even better, turn it upside down.
