GREAT MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR YOUR BOAT INTERIOR VINYL AND UPHOLSTERY
The vinyl and interior fabric in your boat has been specially selected to take the tough punishment of the elements and hard usage of an active boater. Avoid sharp objects that may cut or tear your vinyl.
The vinyl in your boat is usually coated with a special protection like PreFixx protective finish from the vinyl manufacturer. It is designed to be cleaned easily, over and over, without showing signs of wear. With vinyl protection like PreFixx protection, it is possible to remove stains that could never be removed before.
There are three families of sunscreen ingredients which may contribute to the staining of the vinyl in your boat.
· Aminobenzoic acids - e.g. PABA
· Hydroxy benzophenones - e.g. Oxybenzone
· P-methoxycinnamic acid - e.g. Octylmethoxycinnamate
This list should not be considered inclusive, although it does represent a large selection of sunscreens which are known to stain vinyl's, even those treated with PreFixx. In actuality, almost any sunscreen with a high percentage - two percent or above - of active ingredients is a potential stainer.
Special care should be taken to prevent dark colored rubber products or Sunbrella™ canvas from coming in contact with the vinyl upholstery.
Care and Cleaning of Vinyl
Remove ordinary dirt and smudges with a mild soap and warm water solution. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or towel. For more difficult stains, use a stronger detergent. Follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions closely.
SPECIAL CLEANING PROBLEMS FOR VINYL SEATS & UPHOLSTERY
The following steps are recommended to clean stains on protected vinyl upholstery. Many difficult stains can be removed when these cleaning agents are used in the following order.
Cleaning Steps To Match With The Chart (below)
Step 1 Cleaners:

GREAT MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR YOUR BOAT OTHER BOAT COMPONENTS
Dark Stowage Areas
Often, when a boat is stored completely covered or in a dark building, the vinyl will darken or become “dingy” looking. If this happens, simply place the boat in direct sunlight for a few hours and the vinyl will brighten up.
Leather Care
For spots and spills, wipe up excess liquid immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge. If necessary, use clean lukewarm water only and let air dry naturally. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spot occurred. For example, clean the entire seat cushion or entire arm. Do not dry wet areas with hair dryers.
For stubborn spots and stains, use a Mothers VLR or 3D LVP Cleaner - Leather, Vinyl, Plastic Interior Cleaner. Apply the product as the direction xcx
For butter, oil or grease, wipe any excess off the leather with a clean dry cloth, then leave it alone; the spot should dissipate into the leather in a short period of time. Do not apply water or try to wash a butter, oil or grease spot.
Notice: For Leather - DO NOT USE - saddle soap, cleaning solvents, furniture polish, oils, varnish, abrasive cleaners, soaps or ammonia water.
Windshield
To keep the windshield clean, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh detergents, solvents, chemicals or dry cloths. These items will scratch the surface.
Bilge
Keep the bilge area as clean as possible. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove debris from the bilge area. Oil and greasy dirt will accumulate over time and normally can be removed using soap and water. If mold & mildew is present a solution of bleach & water spray coated on all the surfaces of the bilge will self clean after letting it dwell for 10-15 minutes. After rinse heavily to remove any remaining dirt & mildew. Then let air dry. Coating your bilge with a mold & mildew preventative coating will keep that mold & mildew from returning for sometime.
Marine Growth
If marine growth is a problem in your boating area, it may be necessary to apply anti-fouling paint to the hull to slow growth and prevent gelcoat damage.
SEA GRASS FLOOR COVERING CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
General Maintenance Instructions
Plynyl® is made with a woven vinyl fabric bonded to commercial-grade backings. Vinyl is a very tough, durable material and few household or common office chemicals affect it. Routine maintenance along with periodic cleanings and diligent attention to stain-causing spills will provide a long useful life.
The frequency of routine maintenance depends on the application. The frequency has to be determined by the user or through consultation with the manufacturer. The methods for routine maintenance as well as cleaning methods also depend on the application. Frequency depends on the amount of soil and dirt Plynyl is exposed to. Dirt and soil will degrade any flooring, so proper maintenance will increase its natural life cycle.
Plynyl is unique among soft floor coverings because water can be used effectively in daily maintenance. Detergents and shampoos with a pH up to 11 can be used repeatedly and safely. However, it is recommended to use the lowest pH detergent that provides a satisfactory result. When using water with any of the maintenance techniques listed, be sure not to leave any standing water and keep foot traffic off the floor until it is completely dry. Also do not over-wet areas to be cleaned.
Notice: Do not use acetone, Pine-Sol® or citrus-based cleaners, as they can damage Plynyl. Solvents containing xylene or toluene may be used in a limited fashion as a spotting agent. See Spot and Stain Removal. Plynyl w2w and tile are not absorbent and therefore are not recommended to be used in street-level entrances as walk-off mats.
It is recommended that a walk-off mat be provided in every installation to reduce the tracking of soil and other foot-borne contaminants onto the Plynyl floor. If a walk-off mat is not provided, it will result in premature wear of the Plynyl installation.
Sealers, waxes, stain repellents and other topical applications are not required for Plynyl. Using a powder cleaner such as Host is not required; it does not result in more effective cleaning.
Direct contact between natural rubber and Plynyl will cause discoloration in Plynyl. Avoid the use of rubber castors, furniture pads, or other rubber pad or cushion products.
It is necessary to use chair pads under rolling chairs to protect Plynyl fabric and seams.
Maintenance Techniques
The most common and easily accessible maintenance options are the vacuum cleaner and mop. Either is effective in picking up and removing dirt. If a vacuum cleaner is used, the beater brushes should be lowered so it brushes the surface of the Plynyl to release dirt and brush out scuffs.
In the absence of additional cleaning methods noted in Periodic Comprehensive Cleaning, mopping is slightly more effective than a vacuum cleaner because you can use a detergent with a mop. If a detergent is used in mopping, spread it out on the area to be mopped, allow it to stand 30 seconds to 1 minute and then mop the area. Rinse the mop with clean water and apply detergent again if necessary. Rinse and mop with at least one additional clean water rinse after applying detergent, as detergent residue will attract soil if not properly rinsed.
For modest-sized installations, Hoover® manufactures a floor-cleaning machine called the Hoover FloorMATE™, which was designed especially for flat-surfaced floors such as wood and tile. It works very well with Plynyl as well. It uses water, detergent and rotary scrub brushes to aggressively remove soil and dirt. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. It can be used for the home but will work well for some smaller commercial applications as well. You can find it at www.hoover.com. The FloorMATE works well with Crystal Dry™ as well; see Periodic Comprehensive
PERIODIC COMPREHENSIVE CLEANING
There are several methods that work well.
1. The Whittaker GLS™ Carpet Cleaning System with Crystal Dry™ works very well in combination with routine vacuuming. This system relies on Crystal Dry, a detergent that suspends soil into dry crystals that can then be vacuumed easily. Crystal Dry’s advantage over conventional detergents is that it does not leave a soapy residue, which may attract more dirt. Periodic cleaning with Crystal Dry would be done using the GLS, Whittaker’s carpet cleaning machine. The GLS has twin cylindrical counter rotating brushes that are effective in removing soil from Plynyl without abrading the fabric. You can find Whittaker products at www.rewhittaker.com, or call them at 800-422-7686. GLS, Crystal Dry and Carpet Roamer are all trademark names of the R.E. Whittaker Co.
2. Crystal Dry by Whittaker can also be used with a rotary bonnet and pad. It is recommended to saturate a cotton microfiber pad with Crystal Dry to clean the floor. Care should be taken to make sure the pad stays moist. It is not necessary to rinse Plynyl after treating with Crystal Dry.
3. Plynyl can be cleaned with a rotary bonnet and pad and conventional detergents. The pad should be a green striped cotton pad available from most industrial suppliers such as Grainger. First, a detergent should be applied to the surface and allowed to stand for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pass over the floor three to four times with the rotary bonnet and pad. To pick up the detergent, pass over the floor again with the rotary bonnet but with a clean, dry cotton pad. Care should be taken to remove all detergent residue or it may attract more dirt. Care should be taken not to abrade Plynyl with the rotating pad. Hard-to-remove stains should be treated by hand, not machine, as per instructions in Spot and Stain Removal.
4. For large installations, cleaning can be accomplished with an auto-scrubber. When using an auto-scrubber, activate its scrubber brushes and vacuum bar, and set the automatic solution dispenser on medium to high. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations to get the best results from the equipment. Do not exceed an 11 pH for chemicals used in the machinery. As noted earlier, care should be taken to remove all detergent residue or it may attract more dirt.
Spot and Stain Removal
Even with routine maintenance, stains and spots will occur. Clean up spills as quickly as possible. Watery spills should be blotted with clean cloths or paper towels. Thick jelly-like substances should be removed with a spoon or blunt scraper, and then blotted. Solids should be scraped using a blunt scraper and then swept, brushed or vacuumed to remove the material. After removal of the majority of the spilled material, it is important to complete the removal process so the spill does not have a chance to affect the flooring. Whittaker manufactures a spotting and brushing system using Crystal Dry Spotter and Cleaning Agent and the Whittaker Carpet Roamer™; it is effective in cleaning the stains listed on the next page where brushing is required. Plynyl is stain-resistant, not stain-proof. To avoid lasting stains, blot and clean stains immediately.
The following list shows stain-removal procedures for some common spills and other tough-to-clean areas.
Notice: Stains that cannot be removed under the listed procedures can be treated with a 1:10 bleach to water solution. Mist the solution on the area of discoloration and allow it to dwell for 5 minutes. Rinse the area with water only in order to remove the bleach residue. Allow to dry completely before trafficking. Some stains may require a professional to complete the stain-removal process.
GREAT MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR YOUR BOAT CABINETRY AND WOOD
Cabinetry
Clean with any water-rinseable non-abrasive cleaner.
Woodgrain Dash
If your boat is equipped with a woodgrain dash, which will maintain its natural beauty and high-gloss sheen when properly maintained.
For routine cleaning wipe the surface with a damp, soft cotton cloth. For thorough cleaning, wash surface with a mild solution of soap and water, and dry with a soft cotton cloth.
Do not use cleaners or polishes containing alcohol, ammonia, abrasives, oily emollients or petroleum-based materials.
Avoid saturating the surface with polish or wax. In some instances, foam-backed tape used in manufacturing will absorb and retain these substances and result in premature fading and/or discoloration of your woodgrain dash. If cleaners or waxes come in contact with edges, clean the surface immediately with a mild solution of soap and water.
Teak Swim Platform
Your boat may be equipped with a teak swim platform. To keep teak in top condition, clean it occasionally with a teak cleaner and re-oil it at least once a season. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and warnings carefully. Some cleaners and oils may damage gelcoat, vinyl, stainless or aluminum. Avoid using rust-producing steel wool pads when cleaning. Materials can be purchased from your authorized dealer.
Cedar
Wipe surface with a dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth. Do not seal or paint cedar.
TIP FOR MARINE CARPET MAINTENANCE
Vacuum the carpet on a regular basis. Use household carpet stain removers and cleaners to clean the carpet. A scrub brush is effective in removing spotted stains. It just requires so elbow grease and multiple treatments depending on the stain.
A portable carpet shampooer with a hand attachment is a great tool to utilize if you have access to one. Just use the machines recommended carpet cleaner and this should remove and leave your carpet looking like it was professionally cleaned.
GREAT MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR YOUR BOAT DECK AND HULL
The finish on your boat is known as gelcoat. With all its properties, it is not impervious to the elements and many types of water conditions.
Cleaning Deck and Hull
A multi-purpose boat soap* should be used to clean exterior fiberglass/gelcoat surfaces on your boat after each use. This product, depending upon the ratio mixed, is designed to clean anything from dirty hulls and decks to greasy engines. Always rinse and wipe off the finish with a damp towel or chamois.
A fiberglass restorer/wax* should be used to remove heavy oxidation, characterized by a chalk/faded surface as well as rust and exhaust stains. This product will not only remove the oxidation, but also leaves a wax protection on the cleaned surface in one easy application.
Deck and Hull Care
Paste wax* will help retard UV light damage. We suggest three coats be applied at the end or the beginning of the season, depending on the type of winter boat storage (covered, enclosed storage facility), and again mid-season. NOTICE: Teak sealers and cleaners can be harmful to other materials. Make sure you thoroughly remove any spills or excess. Teak should not be varnished. The natural oils in teak will cause poor adhesion.
Notice: Avoid fire or explosion onboard. DO NOT store rags used to treat teak onboard. Store or dispose of rags properly ashore.
To extend the life of your gelcoat finish, use a marine mooring cover totally covering the top deck of the boat for maximum protection. Additionally, if your boat is to be stored where the sun is constantly on the side or transom of the boat, you should consider having some custom skirting made to complement the mooring cover.
Mooring covers will supply adequate short term protection to the interior, but will not protect the gelcoat finish. Please check with your authorized dealer for more information on the subject.
GALVANIC CORROSION
Galvanic corrosion (electrolysis) can result in serious damage to any metal component of your boat that is in the water. Galvanic corrosion is the deterioration of metals due to the effects of electrolytic action. When dissimilar metals are immersed in a conductive fluid such as salt water, an electric current is produced, similar to the action of a battery. The softest of the metals will be the first to become damaged.
Galvanic corrosion can occur in fresh or salt water; however, salt, brackish and polluted waters accelerate galvanic corrosion.
A self-sacrificing anode can be mounted to your boat to help prevent damage to metal components from galvanic corrosion. The anode will require frequent inspections. If the anode shows deterioration of 50% or more, it must be replaced for continued protection.
Refer to the propulsion unit operator’s manual for requirements on galvanic corrosion protection.
Salt Water
Wash the entire boat after each use in salt water. If you continue to operate in salt water, the entire boat should be protected against saltwater damage as described in Interior/Exterior Care, in this section.
Refer to the propulsion unit operator’s manual for manufacturer’s saltwater operating recommendations.
CORROSION PROTECTION with Woody Wax
How To Use Woody Wax For your Fiberglass & Non-Skid Decks
Wash the boat and leave the deck WET.
Always spray WOODY WAX on to a soft deck brush rather than directly on to the deck. Spray 1-2 pumps into the brush and spread from front to back of boat. USE CAUTION - THE DECKS WILL BE SLICK UNTIL THEY ARE RINSED. As you move through the boat you should brush the entire inside of the boat including the deck, smooth fiberglass, metals, electronics, connections and controls, etc.
RINSE, starting at the bow, moving to the stern. Allow most of the water to run off or evaporate.
Dry using a cotton towel (you are actually buffing a light film of hard wax as you dry with the towels.
NOW YOU CAN RELAX!
How To Use Woody Wax For Plastic & Vinyl
Bring back the color and shine to dull vinyl and plastic with a little WOODY WAX! WOODY WAX will renew the look, life and luster of sun dried plastic and vinyl and will also protect it from drying further.
METAL RESTORATION & PROTECTION
Treat metals with Woody Wax to break down corrosion and remove hard water spots and oxidation. Brightens dull metal. Simply wipe it on the metal and let it work - no buffing required. Woody Wax will protect your metals without leaving a sticky or slippery feel. Lasts up to 2 months. For 6 month protection, seal with Woody Wax Metal Sealant.
How To Use Woody Wax For Metal Restoration & Protection
ANODIZED ALUMINUM, ALUMINUM, STAINLESS & CHROME
WOODY WAX is a "wipe on, wipe off" product that disintegrates oxidation, corrosion and water spots. Simply spray WOODY WAX on a clean cotton glove or cloth and apply to metal. For metal that is in good condition, allow WOODY WAX to remain on for approximately 30 minutes, then simply wipe with a clean cloth or disposable blue shop towel. You will be amazed by the depth and the shine that has returned to your bright work, leaving a layer of corrosion blocking wax that is not oily or sticky and lasts for about 2 months.
ANODIZED ALUMINUM AND METALS WITH ROUGH BLISTERS AND PITS
For metals that have heavy pitting or corrosion, it may be necessary to leave WOODY WAX on overnight (it will not hurt the metals to leave on for long periods of time- it will only attack the corrosion and oxidation the longer it sits). Use a piece of fine bronze wool sprayed with WOODY WAX to rub corrosion spots. Corrosion will come right off the pitted area without hurting the metals. Two or Three applications may be necessary over a month or so to fully restore pitted metals.
OUTRIGGERS, T TOPS, TOWERS, RAILINGS, ETC.
Use WOODY WAX to treat and protect outriggers. It is best to leave WOODY WAX on the riggers for a week before wiping it off and applying the Metal Sealant. The longer WOODY WAX has to penetrate the better the metal will look when sealed.
ENGINES, ELECTRONICS AND CONNECTIONS
With a fine mist of WOODY WAX your switches, battery terminals, antennas, fuse panels, light sockets, outboard engines, and electric motors will be corrosion-free and will look and work like the day they were new!
STAINLESS STEEL AND CHROME MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel, though highly resistant, is still capable of rusting, particularly in the marine environment. Initial signs of rust and corrosion, left untreated, may result in pitting and permanent damage to components. Keep your stainless steel looking new by cleaning monthly with a good quality stainless steel cleaner or polish such as Woody Wax. Always clean and polish in the direction of the grain and finish.
The following steps will help protect against such occurrences:
Preventive Steps
Use Woody Wax products to clean and wax metal brightwork prior to extended storage. In saltwater or other harsh environments, repeat more often as needed. High-quality stainless steel cleaners and conditioners are commercially available. Rinse with fresh water and wipe dry with towel or chamois after each use.
Cleaning Stainless Steel
Remove rust or corrosion promptly using a good metal cleaner/polish like Woody Wax products. Delay may contribute to permanent finish damage. Do not use steel wool or other coarse abrasives, or clean with acids or bleach. DO NOT use cleaners that are not for use on stainless steel, such as glass, tile or counter cleaners, or citrus-based cleaners. These types of cleaners can damage the surface permanently.
Protecting Stainless Steel
Apply metal or automotive wax after cleaning for additional protection. Always test any product in an inconspicuous area before applying to the complete surface.
CANVAS MAINTENANCE
The optional bow and/or cockpit mooring covers, bimini top or bimini enclosure on your boat are manufactured from top quality materials to provide you with years of trouble-free service.
The following information is provided to help you maintain the appearance and ease of operation.
A woven fabric made of 100% solution-dyed acrylic fiber. It is very colorfast and will withstand long-term exposure to the sun (ultra-violet) without excessive fading or deterioration.
Do not store canvas wet or in an unventilated, moist area.
Always roll the canvas instead of folding.
Roll the top carefully around the bows and cover with the storage boot provided.
Your canvas is designed and intended for short-term use only. Do not use it for storage.
Do not tow your boat with the top in the upright position.
Cleaning Canvas
Canvas should be cleaned regularly before substances such as dirt and roof particles are allowed to accumulate on and become embedded in the fabric. The fabric can be cleaned without being removed from the installation. Simply brush off any debris, hose down and clean with a mild solution of natural soap in lukewarm water (no more than 100°F). Rinse thoroughly to remove soap. DO NOT USE DETERGENTS. Allow to air dry. Do not store canvas wet or in an unventilated, moist area.
Special Cleaning Problems
For heavily soiled fabric, remove the canvas from the frame. Soak the fabric for approximately 20 minutes in a solution that has been mixed to the following proportions:
1/2 cup (4 ounces) of non-chlorine bleach
1/4 cup of mild soap like Ivory Snow, Dreft™ or Woolite™
One gallon of lukewarm water (water should be no more than 100°F [37.8°C])
Allow the fabric to soak until the non-chlorine bleach has killed the mildew and the stains can be brushed out with a soft scrub brush. Rinse the fabric thoroughly in cold water to remove all of the solution.
This may require rinsing several times. Incomplete rinsing can also cause deterioration of sewing threads and prohibit the fabric from being properly retreated. Do not soak excessively, since the non-chlorine bleach can deteriorate the sewing threads. Allow the fabric to air dry completely.
Sunbrella may also be dry cleaned. DO NOT STEAM PRESS OR DRY IN AN ELECTRIC OR GAS DRYER. Sunbrella is thermoplastic, or heat-sensitive. Excessive heat can damage and shrink the fabric.
These methods of cleaning may remove part of the water and stain repellency that was applied to the fabric during its manufacture. The fabric should receive an application of an air curing treatment such as “303 HIGH TECH FABRIC GUARD” after it has been cleaned.
OTHER CANVAS COMPONENTS MAINTENANCE
Clear Vinyl “Isinglass”
The clear vinyl “isinglass” used in side curtains, aft curtains and visors is very reactive to heat and cold. Carefully unroll the vinyl in cold weather to avoid cracking. Keep vinyl side curtains from touching the bows (tubing) to prevent burning the vinyl. If boat is stored with top, side curtains and aft curtain in place, heat buildup inside of the boat may discolor the vinyl.
Use a soft, clean cloth with Imar Strataglass Cleaner. Never use any harsh or abrasive cleanser; these types of cleaners will scratch the glass. To keep the vinyl soft and flexible, regularly apply UV screening agent such as Imar Strataglass Protectant.
Do not fold or wrinkle curtains; roll smoothly when storing.
NEVER store the isinglass wet or in an unventilated, moist area.
Always roll the glass instead of folding.
Handle the isinglass carefully. It is soft and very prone to scratching.
Zippers
When zippers are new, they can be more difficult to zip than when “used.” Zip carefully without forcing. They will loosen with use. Keep the zippers clean. A zipper lubricant may be used to help new zippers and to maintain long trouble-free service. The most vulnerable part of the zipper is where they start. Use care when starting zipper to prevent damage.
Snap Fasteners
Fasteners should be unsnapped as close to the button as possible. Never remove canvas by pulling roughly on one edge of the material. This can damage the canvas and the fasteners. To prevent snaps from becoming difficult to unsnap, keep them clean and use lubricants such a small amount of Vaseline®, Chapstick®, WD-40®, silicone spray, etc. The most common recommendation is to rub candle wax or paraffin around the stud or inside the socket. Whichever method is used, make sure you clean up any excess so the lubricant does not stain the canvas or any other surfaces it may contact.
