Hood stained

[Dale jones]

Just bought a 24 ft  grp cruiser,  the canopy inside is very badly stained,  it seems to be made,of vinyl  lined  with a white fabric,  looks like it is badly water marked,  have tried cream cleaner to no avail,  anyone any suggestions?

We use fabric foam on the inside of our hoods. Works a treat but we don't let them get too dirty. 

 

Worth a try I suppose as it's only a few quid a can from Tesco. 

 

It does stink though. We do it and then leave the boat for a few hours until the smell has gone. Only takes a few minutes to apply and clean off again so easy to use.

There are paints for PVC, that may be the solution.

Personally I would try a fabric cleaner, together with a stain remover  similar to vanish and a carpet cleaner.  If no joy perhaps try a dye to cover the stain.
