Board cleaning

I use my board almost always in salt water and wanted to know if there is anything i should be doing to protect it besides washing it down with fresh water. I was thinking armor all or a car wax.

i have never heard of anything like that but that justs seems like a bad idea in the making

A good fresh water flush should be sufficent, although, I would clean the hardware thoroughly, i.e. camlocks, fin bolts etc...

I have used carnuba wax on my boards for a few years, I have a board that is 4 years old and has very little color fade, Not sure if waxing is the reason but it is clean looking
