Help!!! Mildew on seats

[Gilbert Scales2]

I have a bad mildew problem on mt vinyl seats. I cleaned it with a little water and small amount of bleach. It just keeps coming back. I had it covered, and this is when it started, however it been uncovered for about a month, and I cleaned them when I uncovered the boat, now it back.

Simple green and a soft bristle brush. Careful with the bleach, it will harden the vinyl. Simple green is organic.

Great article Jason. I appreciate it. Scott. I tried Simple Green and it didn't touch the mildew on my seats. I also have it all over my steering wheel, The thing that worked the best was the Castrol cleaner that comes in the purple bottle but it still didn't get it all the way clean.

I'm going to try what's in the article Jason posted..

X-10 is the best mildew cleaner I've used, but it's hard to find. Sometimes WalMart has it.



The most important thing in reducing mildew is air circulation. Leave gaps in the cover (use small dock fenders) so air can blow throw. If necessary, use a mildew reducing boat fan to circulate the air.

Soft Scrub with Orange or bleach should work pretty good

Bubby, X-10 is in the household cleaners section, if they have it. Pump spray bottle.
