Upholstery

While the vinyl is made to withstand

the elements, it is important to care for vi-

nyl by keeping it clean at all times. Many

substances may stain the vinyl if left un-

treated over a period of time. Remember to

remove any contaminant and clean vinyl

immediately.

Regular washing with mild detergent

(see attached information) and warm water

or vinyl cleaners is sufcient to keep the

cushion and vinyl coverings in good condi-

tion. Do not soak the cushion, and dry thor-

oughly after washing to prevent mildew

accumulations when the boat is covered.

Spray the cushions with a mildew repellent

and prop them up in the boat when it is cov-

ered to take advantage of air circulation.

MasterCraft vinyl is made to withstand the

effects of sun, heat, acid rain and soiling,

under normal conditions, but this does not

preclude the cleaning requirements. Please

consult the following cleaning recommen-

dations before cleaning your upholstery.

Certain household cleaners, powdered

abrasives, steel wool, and industrial cleaners

may cause damage and discoloration, and are

not recommended for use. Dry cleaning uids

and lacquer solvents should not be used be-

cause they will remove the printed pattern and

gloss. Waxes are not recommended, as many

contain dyes and solvents that can permanent-

ly damage the vinyl’s protective coating.

In some instances, consumers have

reported the appearance of a pink stain

on vinyl that is resistant to various clean-

ing methods. Although there can be other

causes for pink staining in vinyls, most

pink stains are caused by dyes produced by

micro-organisms. These dyes are metabolic

products of the micro-organisms, otherwise

known as a form of fungi.

It is virtually impossible for consumers

to avoid these micro-organisms as they exist

in the atmosphere, which are more prevalent

in high-humidity areas. Rain cleanses the air,

with the result being that the micro-organisms

are deposited on items such as marine vinyl.

While the vinyl is treated to resist the

growth of micro-organisms (meaning the

vinyl is not a food source), the stain results

from failure to properly clean and maintain

the vinyl. This means that after use, the up-

holstery must be cleaned with a soft brush

and warm soapy water, followed by a thor-

ough rinse with clean water.

This situation is worsened if the boat is

stored without proper ventilation or if the

boat cover is put on while the vinyl is still

wet, creating a situation in which all forms

of fungi (mold and mildew) thrive.

Failure to follow these instructions in

the proper care of upholstery may cause

your warranty to be voided!
