Anyone else have this?

Thanks
I'm 100% sure that is moldy cheetos from the regatta! Sorry you missed it! We didn't! Sorry about the gas too. I left a ten spot with Tim for you 😂😂

Re: How do I get rid of this? ZEP Mold & Mildew Cleaner

Post by Marco4Ever »

I have used Zep Mold & Mildew cleaner on my 22' pontoon boat (2001) stored outside tucked under a lift canopy and the Vinyl looks almost new.

$2.47 at HomeDepot online or at the local box store, I purchased a couple of brushes at the Dollar store - (1) round scrubber + 1 toilet brush. Spray on the seat, scrub with the brush, rinse off with water in a bucket.

The Zep did not eat the stitching or yellow the seats (tan/white) and cleaned up like a charm.

Try it on a out of the way test spot as every Vinyl is different to to make sure.

I am using it with great success on my SC25 and it works like a charm.

And for grins and giggles, try the Zep foaming glass cleaner, it really does a nice job.

talked to my dealer and he's 100% sure its spider poop. Said to try a solution of vinegar and water. I'll try it but cant say I'm very optimistic.

Spray9 and a set of drill brushes works on spider poop. Be sure to follow with your favorite vinyl protectant. I like 303 Aerospace

I have had those spots as well--no clue where they come from. Best that I have found is a dab of Soft Scrub on a damp rag with your fingers and then rinse immediately with water. It only take a small amount and I keep it away from the stitching.
