Maintenance Tips
-
Rinse After Marine Use: Wash with fresh water after saltwater outings to remove salt, grit, and debris that accelerate wear on upholstery and metal parts.
-
Mild Soap Cleaning: Use a soft cloth and marine‑safe mild soap to clean vinyl; avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives that can degrade the surface.
-
Protect From UV: Apply a marine vinyl protectant to prevent UV fading, cracking, and premature aging of the tan upholstery.
-
Inspect Slides & Hardware: Periodically check the slider mechanism and mounting hardware for corrosion or looseness; lubricate with a light marine spray and tighten as needed.
-
Dry Thoroughly: After cleaning or rain exposure, dry the chair and metal components to prevent mold, mildew, and rust.
