*Sun tan lotion, tree pollen, wet leaves and some other materials,
including waxes, can contain dyes that stain permanently. These stains
are not covered by warranty.
No warranties or claims are hereby made that the cleaning methods will
completely remove the stains and return the material to its original state.
Attempting to clean Malibu upholstery with any unapproved product
may void the warranty and permanently damage the material. Failure
to properly clean and maintain the upholstery will also void the
warranty.
Carpets and Soft Grip
The carpets and soft grip available through Malibu are constructed of
durable, marine-grade material. Occasionally washing with a mild detergent
(such as Dawn dishwashing soap) and warm water is required. Commercial
carpet cleaners (such as Woolite Spray Carpet Cleaner) are also acceptable.
After cleaning, thoroughly rinse the detergent or cleaner out of the
carpet or mat and into the bilge.
Allow the boat to remain uncovered for several days to air dry and avoid
mold and mildew.
See the Canvas and
Upholstery sections
for more information
on mold and mildew
development and how
critical it is to avoid.
Swim Board
Malibu uses high
quality composites to
construct swim boards.
These durable boards
should also periodically
receive a thorough
cleaning. Use only
mild detergents and
warm water or marine-
industry based cleaners
that are approved for
use on fiberglass and
rubber.
