Clear Vinyl Care
•
After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the clear vinyl with cold freshwater.
•
Before stowing, the clear vinyl must be completely dry. Air-drying is best, but you can also carefully dry the vinyl
with a chamois or soft cotton cloth.
•
The clear vinyl can
be rolled or laid out
flat for stowage.
•
Never fold or crease
the clear vinyl parts
as cracking will
occur.
Cleaning Clear
Vinyl
Regularly clean the
clear vinyl to prevent
dirt, pollen, and etc.
from marring the sur-
face. Generally, it is
easiest to clean the
clear vinyl while it is
installed on your boat.
1. Hose down the
clear vinyl with
freshwater.
2. Using a soft cot-
ton cloth (paper
towels are abra-
sive and should
never be used on
clear vinyl), gen-
tly wash the clear
vinyl with soap
and water.
3. Rinse thoroughly to remove the soap.
4. Before stowing, the clear vinyl must be completely dry. Air-drying is best, but you can also carefully dry the
vinyl with a chamois or soft cotton cloth.
•
Ask your dealer about products available to keep the clear vinyl polished and looking new.
•
NEVER store the clear vinyl pieces wet, as this will cause a milky film to develop.
•
NEVER fold or crease the clear vinyl pieces as cracking will occur.
•
Clear vinyl is NOT intended for use when your boat is in storage or being moored.
•
Clear vinyl does NOT hold up well against ultraviolet rays.
•
Under direct sunlight conditions, do NOT let the clear vinyl touch the framework. The
framework radiates heat and can burn the clear vinyl.
