Note: Do not clean the windshield with any window cleaner designed specifically for
glass windows or any cleaner containing harsh chemicals such as ammonia or alcohol as
this will permanently damage the windshield.
Never use any harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners or any hard objects, as they will permanently damage
the windshield.

Rigid T-Top

If you have selected the rigid T-Top, your new top is made from Trylon. This is a composite plastic not
Fiberglass. It will give you years of trouble free service with a few simple steps.
•
Clean the rigid T-Top with soap and water. You may use denatured alcohol for hard to
remove stains.
•
Never clean using acetone or other harsh solvents, as this will damage your rigid T-Top.
•
Your rigid T-Top can be waxed using a standard non-abrasive automobile wax.
•
If you should need to tighten the rigid T-Top to the frame, use care not to over stress or
deform the top as this can cause failure over time. The top should be snug but not
deformed by the fasteners.
Bimini Top & Windscreen

Canvas

One of the best ways to keep Sunbrella brand fabrics looking good and to delay the need for deep or
vigorous cleanings is to hose fabrics off on a monthly basis with clear water. This practice will help
prevent dirt from becoming deeply imbedded in the fabric and eliminate the need for more frequent
vigorous cleanings. In most environments, a thorough cleaning will be needed every two to three years.
When it's time for a thorough cleaning, Sunbrella fabrics can be cleaned while still installed on your boat.
It is important to observe the following:
•
Brush off loose dirt.
•
Hose down.
•
Prepare a cleaning mixture of water and mild soap (Ivory Snow, Dreft or Woolite - no
detergents). Water should be cold to lukewarm. Never more than 100 degrees.
•
Use a soft bristle brush to clean.
•
Allow soap to soak in.
•
Rinse thoroughly.
•
Air dry. Never apply heat to Sunbrella fabrics.
If stubborn stains persist, you can use a diluted chlorine bleach/soap mixture for spot cleaning of mildew,
roof run-off or other similar stains. Prepare a special cleaning mixture:
•
Four ounces (half cup) of chlorine bleach.
•
Two ounces (one-fourth cup) of mild soap.
•
One gallon of water.
•
Clean with soft bristle brush.
•
Allow mixture to soak for up to 20 minutes.
•
Rinse thoroughly.
•
Air dry.
•
Repeat if necessary.
