11.3 Seats, Upholstery, Canvas
and Enclosures
Seat Slides and Swivel Bases
Perform the following periodically:
•
Inspect and tighten mounting screws
between seat slides and seat bottom.
•
Inspect and tighten the mounting screws
attaching seat bases to boat.
•
Keep a light film of grease on manual
seat slides.
•
Keep a light film of grease on manual
seat adjusting mechanism.
•
Clean electric seat slides. DO NOT use
harsh chemicals or abrasives. Lubrica-
tion is not required.
Vinyl Upholstery
The vinyl upholstery used on the exterior
seats and bolsters and headliner in the cabin
should be cleaned with soap and water peri-
odically. Stains, spills or soiling should be
cleaned up immediately to prevent the pos-
sibility of permanent staining. When clean-
ing, rub gently. DO NOT use products
containing ammonia, powdered abrasive
cleaners, steel wool, strong solvents, ace-
tone and lacquer solvents or other harsh
chemicals as they can permanently damage
or shorten the life of vinyl. Never use steam
heat, heat guns or hair dryers.
Stronger cleaners, detergents and solvents
may be effective in stain removal, but can
cause either immediate damage or slow
deterioration. Lotions, sun tan oil, waxes and
polishes, etc., contain oils and dyes that can
cause stiffening and staining of vinyls.
•
Dry soil, dust and dirt - remove with a
soft cloth.
•
Dried on dirt - wash with a soft cloth
dampened with water.
•
Variations in surface gloss - wipe with a
water-dampened soft cloth and allow to
air dry.
•
Stubborn dirt - wash with a soft cloth,
dampened with Ivory Flakes® and water.
Rinse with clean water.
•
Stubborn spots and stains - spray with
either Fantastik Cleaner® or Tannery
Car Care Cleaner® and rub with a soft
cloth. Rinse with clean water.
•
Liquid spills - wipe with a clean absor-
bent cloth immediately. Rinse with clean
water.
•
Food grease and oily stains - spray with
either Fantastik Cleaner® or Tannery
Car Care Cleaner®, wiping with a soft
cloth immediately. Be careful not to
extend the area of contamination beyond
its original boundary. Rinse with clean
water.
Canvas and Side Curtains
Acrylic canvas should be cleaned periodi-
cally by using a mild soap and water. Scrub
lightly and rinse thoroughly to remove the
soap. Do not use detergents. The top or
accessories should never be folded or
stored wet.
After several years, the acrylic canvas may
lose some of its ability to shed water. If this
occurs, wash the fabric and treat it with a
commercially available water proofing
designed for this purpose. Some leakage at
the seams is normal and unavoidable with
acrylic enclosures.
Side curtains and clear connectors can be
cleaned with mild soap and water. Do not
allow them to become badly soiled. Dirt, oil,
mildew, and cleaning agents containing
ammonia will shorten the life of the vinyl that
is used for clear curtains. After cleaning the
curtains and allowing them to dry, apply a
non-lemon furniture polish or an acrylic plas-
tic and clear plastic protector to extend the
life of the curtains.
Vinyl curtains should be stored either rolled
or flat, without folds or creases. Folding the
curtains will make permanent creases that
could cause the vinyl to crack.
DO NOT use any polish containing lemon or
lemon scents; lemon juice attacks vinyl and
shorten its life.
