I feel your pain, it seems nearly impossible to keep an all white interior clean.

I hit the heavier stuff with diluted Simple Green (~50:50 or less) and it takes it right up with a single wipe or two. I keep a Magic Eraser or two on board, and they work well, but they dont last all that long or work quite as well as Simple Green and clean hand towel IMO.

BTW, I buy the Simple Green by the gallon and it's fairly cheap and last a long time. I use it for spaying down the engine compartment (diluted 50:50, then hose it out), it does a great job removing the oil residue that seems to blow out my breathers every time I run the boat.

I use Clorox Cleanup and Majic Eraser together. Like others have said, stay away from the threads! Then be sure to coat with the 303 protectant.

I had a plastic bag from Frostys on the front seat on the ride back from PIB. The lettering melted to the seat and it's not coming off. Any suggestions....?

I had that happen to me as well on one of my Top Guns. I used a little soft scrub with bleach that took care of about 80% of it and let the sun do the rest. Several weeks later, it had faded and was gone.

Mineral spirits is probably one of the best products to clean vinyl with. Do some internet research, you'll be suprised. and the good thing is you'll know exactly what the product is that you're using. Who knows what's in all those miracle cleaners and what it does to your vinyl.

The guy that redid all my vinyl is a classic car upolsterer and that's all he has ever used.
