Opholstery Protection

[nickwilson]

Had a guy tell me that armour-all and other similar products are bad for the vinyl in boats. Is this true and if so what should I use? What do you guys recommend to keep the interior looking new?<br /><br />Thanx in advance!

3M company and the 303 company, both make excellent vinyl cleaners and protectants. <br />Whichever you decide to use, read and follow the instructions.<br />Armorall has received quite a bad rap over the years. Whether or not it is deserved, I have no idea. Since other products are available, I just stayed away from it.<br /><br />Charles

From what I have heard armorall will work great if you keep using it. If you stop for a month or 2 it will speed up cracking and drying out of the vinyl.

Protectorants may help some but the only sure way is to keep it out of the sun as with a cover.
