Cockpit Vinyl Upholstery with PreFixx
Beginning with the 2008 model year, Monterey Boats uses OMNOVA white,
smoother and embossed pleated vinyl material with PreFixx top coating.
All other accent embossed white and colored vinyl requires different care
and maintenance. Please refer to page 8-5 for more information.
PreFixx Cleaning Instructions
PreFixx is engineered so that upholstery can be cleaned again and again
without showing signs of wear. With easy cleanability, proven stain and
abrasion resistance, PreFixx protective finish can reduce maintenance costs
and frequent reupholstery.
Durability. Creates a barrier that resists stains from penetrating to the
surface of the vinyl for proven, long-lasting protection. With laboratory-tested
stain resistance and improved wear properties, BoltaSoft
with PreFixx protective finish can retain a "like-new" appearance longer.
Easy Maintenance. Enables most common stains like dirt and smudges to
wipe off easily. Many difficult stains like ballpoint ink also can be cleaned with
active solvents, such as nail polish remover, without damaging the PreFixx
protective finish (when recommended cleaning instructions are followed).
Normal Care and Cleaning
Remove ordinary dirt and smudges with a mild soap and water solution and a
clean, soft cloth or towel. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or towel. CAUTION:
The use of vinyl "conditioners" or "protectants" is not recommended and
should be avoided on vinyl upholstery treated with PreFixx protective finish.
Special Cleaning Problems
Although BoltaSoft upholstery treated with PreFixx protective finish is
resistant to most common stains, the dyes and pigments in some staining
agents have the ability to create a permanent stain if not treated properly. To
clean difficult stains from upholstery treate with PreFixx protective finish,
locate the staining agent in the lists below and follow its recommended
cleaning method. For best results, treat all stains immediately.
Cleaning Tip: To determine the method and type of cleaners, the source of
the stain should be identified.
Staining Agents: Baby oil, ketchup, chocolate, motor oil, olive oil, grape
juice, urine, blood, hair oil tonic, tea, coffee and betadine. Use Method 1.
Staining Agents: Eye shadow, crayon and grease. Use Method 1. If stains
remain, use Method 2.
