Re-treating the Fabric - Sunbrella fabrics are treated with a fluorocarbon finish to enhance water
repellency. This finish is designed to last for several years, but must be replenished after a thorough
cleaning.
Based on test results, Glen Raven recommends
303 High Tech Fabric Guard™
as the
preferred re-treatment product for Sunbrella fabrics. Fabrics should be retreated after thorough cleaning
or after five years of use. Check with your local Sunbrella dealer or distributor for additional information.
For more information, visit the Sunbrella website at www.sunbrella.com for specific recommendations.
Isinglass (Windscreen Material)
Maintenance means "rinsing" with cold water and trying not to rub the dirt into the Isinglass. Never "Dry"
dust the Isinglass panels. Any rubbing acts like sandpaper to plastic so keep rubbing to a minimum.
Always use lots of cold water and a very very soft cloth when rubbing is required. Do not use paper
towels or Terri-cloth towels. Try not to use any cleaning solutions, as most will cause yellowing and
cracking.
When you have to store the panels of your windscreen and curtain package, always "roll up" the material
to prevent creases. Do not fold the Isinglass as this will permanently damage the Isinglass material. Do
not roll up the panels when wet, as the material will turn white or fog up. Dry the panels off first using a
very very soft cloth before rolling them up. A few hours in the sun will get rid of the whiteness or
fogginess in most cases.

Vinyl

Exterior Vinyl – Upholstered Seats and Cockpit Bolsters
Vinyl requires periodic cleaning to maintain its neat appearance and to prevent the build-up of dirt and
contaminants that may permanently stain and reduce the life of the vinyl if they are not removed. The
frequency of cleaning depends on the amount of use and on environmental conditions to which the vinyl
is subjected. The procedures used for cleaning are dependent upon the end use circumstances.
For normal cleaning, most stains can be cleaned using warm soapy water and a clear water rinse.
Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush will help to loosen soiling material from the depressions
of embossed surfaces. For stubborn stains, use either Fantastic or Mr. Clean, which are commercially
available mild detergents, in accordance with manufacturers instructions.
For additional information regarding the care and maintenance of this product, please refer to the
Morbern brochure provided in your owner's package for recommended methods to clean specific types of
stains.

Corrosion Protection

Spray all electrical connections with a good quality corrosion guard annually and whenever an electrical
connection is repaired or replaced.
If you moor your Pro-Line in salt water for extended periods, be sure to check the transom mounted anti-
corrosion anode often for operation. Check the electrical connections (green wire) on all metallic fittings
with anode for conductivity with an ohmmeter. Make sure the anode surface is exposed and not caked
with corrosion and scale. Renew the anode if it is more than 50% eroded. Your motor and/or drive unit
have a sacrificial zinc anode to mitigate the effects of electrolysis which causes corrosion. Maintain this
anode in accordance with the maintenance schedule in your engine manual.
