clean dry chamois.
Grease and adhesives may be removed with kerosene, hexane or white gas ( not gas you
burn in your boat, car, or lawnmower ). Never use solvents such as acetone, silicone
spray, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, dry cleaning fluid, lacquer or paint thinner, or any
chlorinated solvent on acrylic since they may dissolve the material.

Stainless Steel / Aluminum

Stainless steel is used for bow rails and deck fittings on your Pro-Line. Stainless steel
and aluminum are corrosion resistant but not corrosion proof. If used in contact with
sulfides, chloride salts, or rusting metals, stainless will show rust spots, discolor, or
corrode. The grain structure of stainless and aluminum, when modified by welding
processes, has increased susceptibility to micro-corrosion (invisible to the unaided eye)
and cracking. Proper care will preserve the weld strength and beauty of your stainless
and aluminum:
* Always clean frequently with soap and water. Most glass cleaners work.
* Always protect with a wax, especially around welds to guard against micro-
corrosion, cracking, and rust spots.
* Always remove rust and corrosion spots as they appear with a stainless steel or
aluminum cleaner.
* Never use coarse abrasives like sandpaper or steel wool, as these can cause
rusting.
* Never clean with acids or bleaches.
* Never permit contact with iron, carbon steel, or other metals which could cause
rust or corrosion.

Canvas

Cleaning: Brush the canvas with a soft bristle brush and hose down at regular intervals to
remove bird droppings and dirt particles. It may be washed with a mild solution of
natural soap in lukewarm water (less than 100 deg. F). DO NOT USE DETERGENTS.
For stubborn stains, soak the canvas in a solution of 4oz. non-chlorine bleach, 4oz.
natural soap, and one gallon warm water for approximately 20 minutes. Rinse with cold
water.
Note: If the water repellence is lost due to cleaning, apply a water repellent treatment as
necessary.
The canvas may be washed in an automatic washing machine with cold water using 2
cups non-chlorine bleach and 1 cup natural soap. DO NOT DRY IN A DRYER. LINE
DRY ONLY to prevent shrinkage. If water will not bead on dry surface, re-treat with
water repellent.
Storage: Do not fold or store any canvas while wet. All canvas should be rolled or
folded when dry and kept in a clean dry location.
