T&T: Cleaning dingy tubes

[sailmc via Trawlers-and-Trawlering]

We use either Mary Kate or West marine vinyl cleaner with a Magic Eraser. Works well. Our dingy gets very hard use and needs frequent cleaning. Regards,Miles Cherkasky

Cleaning and Protecting a Hypalon Inflatable (Gary Hagstrom)----------------------------------------------------------------------Message: 1Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2019 15:32:08 +0000 (UTC)From: Gary Hagstrom <ghag...@yahoo.com>To: List <traw...@lists.trawlering.com>Subject: T&T: Cleaning and Protecting a Hypalon InflatableMessage-ID: <543127184.85054...@mail.yahoo.com>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8I was wondering if any listees have any suggestions on cleaning and preserving an AB hypalon inflatable.? I have tried some cleaners but feared they did too much damage to the rubber so I have settled on aircraft grade simple green diluted to a 10% solution.? It works fine for general dirt however I have some black spots that are either soot or mildew on the rubber.? I believe they are soot from some old tugs with Detroit Diesels working on a superfund site nearby my marina since it is only on the top of the tubes.? It would seem mildew would do better on the underside.? ANy cleaning suggestions would be appreciated.I use several coats of 303 protectant on the tubes each Spring before the boat goes out of storage.? The dinghy is not covered and the boat is inthe water and outside 6 months each year in the Wisconsin sun.Gary HagstromIron River, Wisconsin------------------------------Subject: Digest Footer_______________________________________________http://lists.trawlering.com/mailman/listinfo/trawlers_lists.trawlering.comTo unsubscribe send email totrawler...@lists.trawlering.com with the word UNSUBSCRIBE and nothing else in the subject or body of the message.Trawlers & Trawlering and T&T are trademarks of Water WorldProductions.
