INTERIOR CARE
Vinyl and Upholstery
Always try to clean up spills quickly to prevent staining.
The seat coverings and trim are made of temperature-resistant, expandable vinyl.
Remove lightly soiled areas with a mild soap and warm water solution. Dry with a
clean, soft, lint-free cloth or towel. For difficult stains, refer to
SPECIAL CLEANING
PROBLEMS
.
Use a stronger detergent (always follow label instructions) for difficult stains.
Never use steel wool or abrasive, powdered cleaners. They will mar the surface.
Removable outside seat cushions should be placed inside when not in use. Refer to
the Vinyl Care Guide supplied with your boat for additional information.
Cabin Cushions, Interior Curtains and
Fabrics
Treat the upholstery the same as you would treat home upholstery. Dust and dirt
become harsh abrasives in cushions, so vacuum often. To keep fabrics clean and
odor-free, vacuum often and shampoo. Allow the cushions, interior curtains and
fabrics to air dry. On occasion, spray with Lysol™ or other disinfectant to prevent
mildew.
Wood Products
Clean 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. A quality liquid furniture
wax can be used when necessary. Apply liquid wax product gently and work from the
center out. Rub in a circular motion and stop near the edge of the wood that meets
with the interior or carpet. Remove wax with a clean soft cloth.
Carpet
Dust and dirt become harsh abrasives in carpeting, so vacuum often.
Interior
– Vacuuming and occasional carpet shampooing are recommended for
extended life and appearance. Apply a light coating of Scotchgard™ to protect
against accidental spills.
Exterior
– Scrub indoor/outdoor carpeting with a brush using mild detergent and
warm water. Thoroughly rinse with clean water. Allow carpet to dry completely before
use. Apply a light coating of Scotchgard™ to protect against accidental spills.
