For minor repairs follow this procedure:

1. Clean the area to be repaired and clear it of

wax and oil.

2. Thoroughly clean out nicks, chips and

scratches.

3. Sand area to be repaired so gelcoat will

bond.

4. IN A SEPARATE CONTAINER, MEASURE ONLY

THE AMOUNT OF GELCOAT YOU NEED. Mix a

2% ratio of catalyst to the amount of gelcoat

being used (a spoonful of gelcoat will

require only a drop or two of catalyst).

NOTE: DO NOT pour any unused portions of the

gelcoat/catalyst mixture back into either original

container.

5. Apply gelcoat to area leaving a slight lift

above the surface.

6. Cover with wax paper (lack of oxygen helps

mixture set) and let set 20 to 30 minutes.

7. Remove wax paper and shave off excess

gelcoat with a razor blade.

8. By the time the area is shaved smooth, you

are ready to sand (Use 400 to 600 grade

sandpaper, NO SUBSTITUTES.)

9. Rub or buff the fiberglass with Fiberglass

Cleaner/Compound, then polish, then wax.

Some discoloration may occur if your boat has

weathered. For your first attempt at repair,

experiment on an area not normally visible. With

a little experience, even the novice can repair a

scratch with few, if any, visible repair marks.

HARDWARE AND FITTINGS

Chrome, stainless steel and aluminum hard-

ware should be cleaned with Meguiar’s All

Metal Cleaner, followed with an application

of Meguiar’s All Purpose Metal Polish.

AVOID THE USE OF DETERGENTS OR ABRA-

SIVES WHEN CLEANING HARDWARE.

Inspect all hardware and fittings to make sure

they are secure. All screws, bolts, clamps,

cleats, etc., must be tight.

UPHOLSTERY

Your boat’s seats and vinyl upholstery should

be kept as clean as the exterior finish to pro-

long life and beauty.

SEAT COVERINGS & VINYL

The seat coverings and vinyl trim are made of

temperature resistant vinyl.

1. Always try to clean up spills quickly to pre-

vent staining.

2. Clean dirt and smudges with Meguiar's Vinyl

& Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner. If necessary,

scrub with a soft bristle brush to remove

dirt from textured vinyl. Dry with a soft, lint-

free cloth or towel.

3. Use a stronger detergent such as Meguiar’s

Heavy Duty Vinyl Cleaner for tough stains. Fol-

low the instructions on the bottle label for

ground-in dirt, a nylon brush can be used to

scrub out stains.

Certain household cleaners, powdered abra-

sives, steel wool and industrial cleaners can

cause damage and discoloration and are not

recommended. Petroleum-based cleaning prod-

ucts such as dry cleaning fluids and lacquer

solvents should not be used, as they will

remove the printed pattern and gloss. Waxes

should be used with caution. Many contain dyes

or solvents that can permanently damage the

protective coating.

4. Suntan oil will damage vinyl upholstery. Use

suntan lotion instead of suntan oil.

5. Removable outside seat cushions should be

placed inside when not in use.

Exposure to the sun is the enemy of all uphol-

stery materials. For maximum life, we

recommend keeping them covered with a cock-

pit or full length cover when you are not using

your boat.

Gelcoat and fiberglass resin are
