13 DECK FITTINGS
13.1 GENERAL POINTS
13.1.1 Polyester
- Regularly brush the deck using a gentle de-greasing agent then rinse the deck with fresh
water.
- Use as few cleaning agents as possible.
- Don't use solvents or aggressive detergent agents.
- Don't discharge cleaning agents into the water: Consult the harbourmaster's office to find out
the conditions of water use and the maintenance area for cleaning your vessel.
- Don't use a pressure washer.
13.1.2 Plexiglas (PMMA)
- Rinse plexiglas with fresh water.
- Use a polish paste for thin scratches.
- Consult your dealer concerning deep scratches.
13.1.3 STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is an alloy of iron and carbon (steel) with the addition of chromium. This
chromium provokes the formation of a protective film which separates the steel from the
atmosphere outside. This coating is usually invisible as it's so thin. So in spite of its name this
steel is not stainless and requires a minimum of maintenance:
- The use of chrome tools is preferable whenever handling stainless steel;
- Re-nourish the protective film regularly with passivation paste.
ADVICE-RECOMMENDATION
Never use solvents, alcohol, acetone or detergents on the plexiglass.
