roll off is used for the exterior of your boat...chemicals and will harm your interior...use vinyl cleaning products.. here is two threads on how to clean your interior with no harm to materials or stitching.. Good Luck. Jeff

I have been using a mold and mildew remover and a magic eraser. Last year it took my 89 interior to 2009. The chemicals were very harsh though. I just tried to place an order for some of the leverage product suggested but got an error message at checkout. One of the 404 forbidden blah blah messages.

Crown Spray Power - I was turned on to this by a buddy and had huge doubts. I soaked the bilge and now I would eat off it. Spray it on and let it sit a few minutes, then hose 'er down. I sprayed again and scrubbed just because I'm a stickler.

Followed the same routine on the vinyl with a bristle brush and it was better than new. Followed the cleanup with 303.

Just as stated above, it's not an abbrasive so you don't have to worry about breaking down the stitching or the material, period.

I had to call them to find someone who sold it nearby... I found it at Wal-Mart and the gallon is only $5 and the bottle was $2 or so. Half the price of what it was on the website.

I don't think i would use roll off on my vinyl for everyday cleaning but when its really dirty, roll off will clean it great. I've been using it for a while with no ill effect. The guy that turned me on to it has been using it for a very long time, with no ill effects. You'll get lots of uses out of that stuff!

Spraynine is the best vinyl cleaner that I've used. You can you Roll-Off, but it's best to dilute it. Regarding the Magic Eraser, use it sparingly and be very careful on cleaning colored vinyl.

Good point with the roll off. I'd dilute it at least 2 to 1. Its strong stuff and a little goes a long way

Clorox cleaner with bleach is not that strong that it will hurt anything. Been using it on the same boat seats for 10 yrs with no problems.
