11.3 Seats, Upholstery, Canvas

and Enclosures

Seat Slides and Swivel Bases

Perform the following periodically:

• Inspect and tighten mounting screws

between seat slides and seat bottom.

• Inspect and tighten the mounting screws

attaching seat bases to boat.

• Keep a light film of grease on manual

seat slides.

• Keep a light film of grease on manual

seat adjusting mechanism.

• Clean electric seat slides. DO NOT use

harsh chemicals or abrasives. Lubrica-

tion is not required.

Vinyl Upholstery

The vinyl upholstery used on the exterior

seats and bolsters and headliner in the cabin

should be cleaned with soap and water peri-

odically. Stains, spills or soiling should be

cleaned up immediately to prevent the pos-

sibility of permanent staining. When clean-

ing, rub gently. DO NOT use products

containing ammonia, powdered abrasive

cleaners, steel wool, strong solvents, ace-

tone and lacquer solvents or other harsh

chemicals as they can permanently damage

or shorten the life of vinyl. Never use steam

heat, heat guns or hair dryers.

Stronger cleaners, detergents and solvents

may be effective in stain removal, but can

cause either immediate damage or slow

deterioration. Lotions, sun tan oil, waxes and

polishes, etc., contain oils and dyes that can

cause stiffening and staining of vinyls.

• Dry soil, dust and dirt - remove with a

soft cloth.

• Dried on dirt - wash with a soft cloth

dampened with water.

• Variations in surface gloss - wipe with a

water-dampened soft cloth and allow to

air dry.

• Stubborn dirt - wash with a soft cloth,

dampened with Ivory Flakes® and water.

Rinse with clean water.

• Stubborn spots and stains - spray with

either Fantastik Cleaner® or Tannery

Car Care Cleaner® and rub with a soft

cloth. Rinse with clean water.

• Liquid spills - wipe with a clean absor-

bent cloth immediately. Rinse with clean

water.

• Food grease and oily stains - spray with

either Fantastik Cleaner® or Tannery

Car Care Cleaner®, wiping with a soft

cloth immediately. Be careful not to

extend the area of contamination beyond

its original boundary. Rinse with clean

water.

Canvas and Side Curtains

Acrylic canvas should be cleaned periodi-

cally by using a mild soap and water. Scrub

lightly and rinse thoroughly to remove the

soap. Do not use detergents. The top or

accessories should never be folded or

stored wet.

After several years, the acrylic canvas may

lose some of its ability to shed water. If this

occurs, wash the fabric and treat it with a

commercially available water proofing

designed for this purpose. Some leakage at

the seams is normal and unavoidable with

acrylic enclosures.

Side curtains and clear connectors can be

cleaned with mild soap and water. Do not

allow them to become badly soiled. Dirt, oil,

mildew, and cleaning agents containing

ammonia will shorten the life of the vinyl that

is used for clear curtains. After cleaning the

curtains and allowing them to dry, apply a

non-lemon furniture polish or an acrylic plas-

tic and clear plastic protector to extend the

life of the curtains.

Vinyl curtains should be stored either rolled

or flat, without folds or creases. Folding the

curtains will make permanent creases that

could cause the vinyl to crack.

DO NOT use any polish containing lemon or

lemon scents; lemon juice attacks vinyl and

shorten its life.
