COSMETIC CARE
STAINS: If your boat
is
parked under a tree, leaves and debris containing acidic
ingredients such as tannic acid may stain your gelcoat
and/or
upholstery. If soap and
water
do
not readily remove these stains, try a mild abrasive like Soft Scrub applied with
a wet sponge
or
wipe lightly with Fantastic. Correct Craft Customer Service can provide
additional information for removing persistant stains.
CAUTION: HOUSEHOLD CLEANING PRODUCTS FREQUENTLY CONTAIN BLEACH,
BE
SURE
TO
RINSE
YOUR
BOAT THOROUGHLY WITH
FRESH
WATER AFTER
USE.
CARE OF UPHOLSTERY: Your Correct Craft boat
is
equipped with the finest vinyl
upholstery available, but it needs attention to ensure its continuing lustre. The first thing
you should know
is
that vinyl can become dry and brittle when exposed
to
natural body
oils, suntan lotion, dirt and, of course, sunlight.
CLEAN
YOUR
UPHOLSTERY
ON
A
REGULAR
BASIS
WITH
A LIGHT DETERGENT
AND
WATER.
BE
SURE
TO
RINSE
IT
WELL
WITH
FRESH
WATER
AND WIPE
DRY
WITH
A
SOFT CLOTH
OR
TOWEL.
Here are a few tips:
DO
NOT step on your upholstery if at all possible, since heavy pressure on small
areas can cause eventual tearing of the material.
DO
NOT use bleach on the interior fabric of your boat.
DO
NOT use a mooring cover when the boat is wet
and/or
hot. It causes condensation
which
in
turn will create mildew. (Leave adequate ventilation when using a mooring cover
to ensure a free flow of fresh air.)
If you do not have a garage or other covered protection for the times that your boat
is
not
in
use, then cover your upholstery with towels or a drop-cloth, making sure that the
upholstery
is
dry.
DELUXE INTERIORS: Some boats are equipped with interiors whose side surfaces
touch, such as a wrap-around seating. This type of seating should be raised, cleaned
AND DRIED before lowering back into position. THIS
IS
IMPORTANT
TO
PREVENT
TRAPPED MOISTURE
FROM
CREATING A BUILD
UP
OF MILDEW. (Any trapped
moisture will lead to mildew.)
NOTE: Should your upholstery become damaged for any reason, then take your boat
to
your dealer or to a reputable repair person
as
soon
as
possible to prevent further
damage.
