Tom Christopher asked:

What do you recommend for boat fenders? Most of the real bad stuff comes off, but still have blackish stains that wont clean up with simple green etc.

Boat Scrub does a great job of cleaning fenders. Use it full strength from the bottle and scrub away the dirt and grime with an Aurora Scrub Mitt or aggressive cloth, like a piece of carpeting or terry towel. A scrub brush can also be used, especially to get in around ridges, nooks and crannies. If the grime is really ground in, pre-wet the fender with Boat Clean before cleaning with Boat Scrub.

Two coats of Vinyl Guard, after you have cleaned and rinsed your fenders, will put a protective polish on them that will restore the shine and help resist dirt in the future.

Thanks for your question,
