Vinyl Care and Cleaning
Correct Craft has selected the finest marine grade vinyl for your Nautique. It
is important to keep it clean at all times. There are some substances that will
stain the vinyl if you leave them on for even a short period of time. Remove
any contaminant and clean the area immediately. Do not use 409 Cleaner or
any Silicone based products. Certain household cleaners, powdered abrasives,
steel wool and industrial cleaners can cause damage and discoloration. Do not
use these cleaners. Dry cleaning fluids and lacquer solvents should not be
used.
