The best way to take care of your Cobalt boat is
with prevention and proper care. All of the care
methods within this section may not apply to your
boat.
VINYL INTERIOR AND
UPHOLSTERY
The vinyl and interior fabric in your Cobalt boat has
been specially selected to take the tough
punishment of the elements and hard usage of an
active boater. Avoid sharp objects that may cut or
tear your vinyl.
The vinyl in your Cobalt boat has been coated with
PreFixx protective finish. It is designed to be
cleaned easily, over and over, without showing
signs of wear. With PreFixx protection, it is possible
to remove stains that could never be removed
before. There are three families of sunscreen
ingredients which may contribute to the staining of
the vinyl in your Cobalt boat.
• Aminobenzoic acids - e.g. PABA
• Hydroxy benzophenones - e.g. Oxybenzone
• P-methoxycinnamic acid - e.g.
Octylmethoxycinnamate
This list should not be considered inclusive,
although it does represent a large selection of
sunscreens which are known to stain vinyls, even
those treated with PreFixx. In actuality, almost any
sunscreen with a high percentage - two percent or
above - of active ingredients is a potential stainer.
The vinyl manufacturer or Cobalt Boats warranties
do not cover vinyl staining from suntan lotions.
Special care should be taken to prevent dark
colored rubber products or Sunbrella™ canvas
from coming in contact with the vinyl upholstery.
Care and Cleaning of Vinyl
Remove ordinary dirt and smudges with a mild
soap and warm water solution. Dry with a soft,
lint-free cloth or towel. For more difficult stains, use
a stronger detergent. Follow the detergent
manufacturer’s instructions closely.
Special Cleaning Problems
The following steps are recommended to clean
stains on PreFixx-protected vinyl upholstery. Many
difficult stains can be removed when these cleaning
agents are used in the following order.
Step 1 Cleaners
Rinse cleansed area with fresh water and dry with a
clean cloth.
• Formula 409™ or Fantastik™
• Clorox™ Soft Scrub
®
with bleach
• Household cleaners and bleaches
Step 2 Cleaners
Solvent-type cleaners to be liberally applied with a
cloth, damp sponge or fine bristle brush. Rinse
cleansed area with fresh water and dry with a clean
cloth.
• Rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol)
• Lighter fluid (naphtha)
