CAUTION! DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS FOR CLEANING.
IT WILL RAPIDLY DULL THE GELCOAT SURFACE.
NOTE: ON SOME MODELS, THE HEAD SINK BASIN HAS A GELCOAT
SURFACE AND WILL BE DAMAGED BY THE USE OF ABRASIVE CLEANERS.
At least once a year, the smooth gelcoat surfaces should be
cleaned thoroughly, washed and polished. Acetone can be
used for cleaning stubborn areas. Abrasive cleaners should
be used sparingly, if at all. Use a wax especially formu-
lated for fiberglass surfaces.
CAUTION !! NEVER USE ACETONE ON ANY PLASTIC PARTS,
SUCH AS PORTS OR HATCHES , ETC. AVOID USING TOO MUCH
ACETONE OR FROM PUDDLING THE ACETONE ON GELCOAT
SURFACES. ANY GELCOATED AREAS THAT HAVE COME IN
CONTACT WITH ACETONE SHOULD BE WIPED OFF AND RINSED
IMMEDIATELY WITH FRESH WATER.
8.2.1.2 wood surfaces
Depending on the personal preferences of the owner , exter-
ior teak may be oiled, varnished, or left alone. If left
untreated, exterior teak takes on a gray appearance that is
pleasing to some people, but requires almost constant
scrubbing to keep presentable. Varnished teak retains a
fresh light color, but requires a lot of attention since
varnish does not adhere well to teak. Oiled teak is the
easiest to maintain although it has a tendency to darken
with age. A number of excellent products for maintaining
oiled teak are available, and the instructions regarding
their use should be followed carefully.
CAUTION! THE USE OF COMMERCIAL TEAK CLEANERS SHOULD
BE AVOIDED. IF ANY ARE USED, GREAT CARE MUST BE
EXERCISED TO KEEP THE CLEANER FROM COMING IN CONTACT
WITH ADJACENT SURFACES SINCE IT CAN DAMAGE VARNISHED,
PAINTED, OR GELCOAT SURFACES.
When a lighter finish is desired with oiled teak , the dark
outside layer of wood can be removed by rubbing with bronze
wool or fine sandpaper. After rubbing, the teak should be
well-oiled.
CAUTION! NEVER USE STEEL WOOL FOR ANY KIND OF
CLEANING ON A YACHT. SMALL PARTICLES WILL REMAIN,
CAUSING RUST SPOTS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE.
The interior wood finishes on your Pearson should last for
several seasons before requiring renewal. It should, how-
ever, be kept in n] ind that it is far easier to refinish a
surface in fair-to-good condition than to refinish a sur-
face that has been allowed to deteriorate.
