cleaning a cockpit cover???
How do you remove mildew on the inside of a Sunbrella cover? Is there some way to lay it out in the yard and scrub it? With what?

Try a solution of 60% water and 40% bleach to start. Let the solution soak in for 5-10 minutes and then scrub with a deck brush. First test in an inconspicious place. You can also purchase Mildew Stain Remover, but it is expensive, Approx. $12.00 at West Marine or Boaters World.

Be sure to wash in hot water before treatment or it won't work. I washed mine in the washer with detergent and it took almost all of it out but now have to rinse and treat .
