It's time to pull the boat out of the water, bring it home for a few days, and do the spring cleaning. As always, being covered and used sparingly over the winter has left the seats with a little mildew.

Question: Does anyone have good experience with any product that will actually prevent or reduce the occurance of mold and mildew on vinyl?

Pontoon guys with a lot of furniture say 303 protectant

Have a look at easy care boat maintenance tips: http://www.pontoonboatguide.com/oper...e-maintenance/

3M Marine Mildew Block #09065 does a good job.

I am told by a reliable source that you can make a homebrew version of
303 for about 1/10th the cost. The recipe is 50% mineral spirits and
50% liquid silicone.
