soft cloth or damp sponge. Use no more than six
rubs, and if the stain persists, contact Cobalt

Recommended Cleaning Solutions for
Prefixx-Coated Nautolex Vinyls
Dark Stowage Areas
Often, when a boat is stored completely covered or
in a dark building, the vinyl will darken or become
“dingy” looking. If this happens, simply place the
boat in direct sunlight for a few hours and the vinyl
will brighten up.
Leather Care
For spots and spills, wipe up excess liquid
immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or
sponge. If necessary, use clean lukewarm water
only and let air dry naturally. If water is used, clean
the entire area where the spot occurred. For
example, clean the entire seat cushion or entire
arm. Do not dry wet areas with hair dryers.
For stubborn spots and stains, use a mild
non-detergent cleaner such as a bar of Ivory
Soap™ or Amway™ L.O.C. Apply the soap to a
clean wet sponge, wash, then rinse well. Let air dry
naturally.
For butter, oil or grease, wipe any excess off the
leather with a clean dry cloth, then leave it alone;
the spot should dissipate into the leather in a short
period of time. Do not apply water or try to wash a
butter, oil or grease spot.
NOTICE: It is extremely
important to clean the stained
area as quickly as possible,
making sure the recommended
cleaning steps are followed in
order.
