CABINETRY AND WOOD
Cabinetry
Clean with any water-rinseable non-abrasive
cleaner.
Woodgrain Dash
Your Marker One boat may be equipped with a
woodgrain dash, which will maintain its natural
beauty and high-gloss sheen when properly
maintained.
• For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with a
damp, soft cotton cloth. For thorough cleaning,
wash surface with a mild solution of soap and
water, and dry with a soft cotton cloth.
• Do not use cleaners or polishes containing
alcohol, ammonia, abrasives, oily emollients or
petroleum-based materials.
• Avoid saturating the surface with polish or wax.
In some instances, foam-backed tape used in
manufacturing will absorb and retain these
substances and result in premature fading
and/or discoloration of your woodgrain dash. If
cleaners or waxes come in contact with edges,
clean the surface immediately with a mild
solution of soap and water.
Teak Dinette Table
Your Marker One boat may be equipped with a teak
dinette table. To keep teak in top condition, clean it
occasionally with a teak cleaner and re-oil it at least
once a season. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and warnings carefully. Some cleaners
and oils may damage gelcoat, vinyl, stainless or
aluminum. Avoid using rust-producing steel wool
pads when cleaning. Materials can be purchased
from your authorized Marker One dealer.
CARPET
Vacuum the carpet on a regular basis. Use
household carpet stain removers and cleaners to
clean the carpet.
WOODGRAIN HULL PANELS
The clear finish on the Marker One wood hull
panels is Alexseal’s catalyzed, marine yacht finish,
which is a high-quality, hard, durable marine clear
coat. It contains a very good ultraviolet filter to
protect from the sun’s rays. For routine cleaning,
wipe the surface with a damp, soft cotton cloth. For
thorough cleaning, wash surface with a mild
solution of soap and water, and dry with a soft
cotton cloth. Alternatively, use a soft microfiber
cloth and Meguiar’s Final Inspection spray as a
cleaner.
It is extremely important that your cleaning solution
is Clear Coat safe. Do not use cleaners or polishes
containing alcohol, ammonia, abrasives, oil
emollients or petroleum-based materials.
This finish may also be waxed for an additional
layer of protection, if desired.
DECK AND SIDE WALLS
The finish on your Marker One boat is known as
gelcoat. The gelcoat used by Marker One Boats is
the finest available on the market today. With all its
properties, it is not impervious to the elements and
many types of water conditions.
ALUMINUM HULLS
Rinse all aluminum surfaces of your boat frequently.
Use water and mild detergents for cleaning and
protecting the aluminum hulls.
NOTICE: Teak sealers and
cleaners can be harmful to other
materials. Make sure you
thoroughly remove any spills or
excess. Teak should not be
varnished. The natural oils in
teak will cause poor adhesion.
Avoid fire or explosion onboard. DO
NOT store rags used to treat teak
onboard. Store or dispose of rags
properly ashore.
