Vinyl Cleaning & Care Recommendations:
Surface Mildew:
Wash with diluted bleach; use a soft brush for stubborn growth. Rinse with clear cold water.
Bird Excreta & Nausea Stains:
Sponge the area with soapy water containing diluted bleach until the stain is removed. Rinse thor-
oughly with water.
Urine Stains:
Sponge with soapy water containing a small amount of household ammonia. Rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
WARNING!
Powered abrasives, cleaner containing abrasives, steel wool and industrial strength cleaner are not
recommended for Morbern vinyls. Any lacquer solvent will cause immediate, irreparable damage to
the vinyl.
Wax should never be used on any vinyl upholstery, as it will cause premature embrittlement and
cracking.
Provisional Care & Cleaning of Morbern Vinyl’s:
Morbern Vinyl requires periodic cleaning to maintain its neat appearance and to prevent the build up
of dirt and contaminants that may permanently stain and reduce the life of the vinyls if they are not
removed. The frequency of cleaning depends on the amount of use and environmental conditions
to which the vinyl is subjected. The procedures used for cleaning are dependent upon the end use
circumstances.
Note: Detergents should never be used on a regular or repeated basis for normal cleaning. Full
strength rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits may be tried cautiously as a last resort on very stubborn
stains, if the above suggestions do not work. Indiscriminate use of any solvent or solvent containing
cleaner, can severely damage or discolor the vinyl.
For Normal Cleaning:
In general, most common stains can be cleaned using warm, soapy water and clear water rinses.
Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush will help to loosen soiling material from the de-
pressions of embossed surfaces. For stubborn stains, use the following commercially available mild
detergents in accordance with manufacturers instructions: Fantastic and Mr. Clean
CANVAS:
Bennington’s canvas is made using high quality vinyl and the latest sewing techniques. The canvas
is not completely leak proof. The seam holes in your canvas may stretch and leak over time. Prod-
ucts are available to seal seamed areas to help prevent leaks from occurring. Bennington Marine
does not cover leaking canvas under warranty.
Cleaning
Fabric can be cleaned to prevent the buildup of soiling. Simply brush off any loose dirt and hose
down the canvas with fresh water. For removing dirt buildup, use a mild detergent and fresh warm
water. Never put the canvas in a machine washer or dryer. This will cause lasting damage. Also,
do not steam press canvas. Air dry all canvas before storing. This will help to prevent mold and
mildew. Never use solvents to clean the canvas.
