Default Spider Crap on Vinyl

How do you get spider crap (orange) dots off of vinyl? They must get in under the tarp. I have tried soft scrub with no luck. Any ideas?

Our detailer uses Spray Nine. Works very well on spider crap. Just spray it on and it will just run off in a matter of seconds. I see your from LOTO. We sell the stuff at Kelly's Port Marina. Not sure about the Osage Beach marina but the one on the Gravois Arm "7mm of the Gravois" does. Give that a shot. Good luck.

Wow, if you're talking about soft scrub gel, I'm surprised, since that stuff has bleach in it and usually will clean about anything, altho may be a bit much for some things. We have had good luck and like "Orange Blast" made by Greased Lightning. No stink, no bleach, smells good and cleans great. Trick is to spray it on and let it sit for a bit before using a damp cloth to wipe. Available everywhere, i usually get it at Wally World.

Thanks for the help. Only a couple of those pin dots, but I know they are there.

I have had good luck with cleaning it with Dawn Soap, risnse, then taking a Mr. Clean eraser to the stain to get it all out.

I am not sure what the hell i was thinking when I re-did mine 3 years ago. I did it almost all bright white

This pic was taken the start of this summer
I will say the best stuff I found so far is Clorox clean up with bleach. Just don’t lean on it with a color tee-shirt. I have ruined enough of them each summer.

We use bleach on ours and have for the last 3 years, however not everytime we clean. We use it 3 or 4 times a year, then use Krazy Klean with Magic Eraser. We have had no issues with our seams and we condition the vinyl when we're done. We have the very bright white vinyl also and bleach is the best.

I understand vinyl is different than say the leather/pleather that some boats have in them.
