Cushions

[HuskerBoater]

Hi all. I need some help. I have an '06 205. What is the best product for cleaning but more importantly protecting my bow and seat cushions? After winter storage, there is some mildew build up. I scrubbed it with soap and water but there is still some staining. What do you all use to clean and then protect your vinyl cushions? Thanks.

I use 303 Aerospace protectant on the cushions. If I have a few stubborn spots or mold I scrub the spots with marine Spray Nine, rinse, then a coat of 303.

Try Mr Clean Magic Eraser.

Hmmm...magic eraser did not work. I'll try Tilex. I guess I need something with bleach.

Somewhere on another forum, a boater commented about a mildew remover he got at Wallmart. he said it was the best product he found for his boat cushions. I don't think it was marine specific)
Worth a try I guess.
I've had some luck with SoftScrub with Bleach.

After cleaning, I apply Aerospace 303 protectorant also.

+1 on 303 Protectant. Never found anything else like it. I used it everything plastic, vinyl, or rubber. Even works on fiberglass.

Be careful with bleach products, it can remove the outer layer of the vinyl surface which permanently damages it.
