This is a used set of Back to Back seats. By no means are they perfect. I spent a few minutes cleaning them and got most of the normal dirt and ...

I've tried bleach based cleaners but do not want to allow them to soak for extended periods as they will weaken the material. I assume these spot are mildew. They appear while the boat is stored between outings. Is the anything that you can allow to soak and hopefully penetrate the fabric? The fabric is marine grade vinyl and I've even used a 3000 psi pressure washer with the current products. Any suggestions that won't ruin my seats would be deeply appreciated. thanks

Em Clean is a mold killer used on leather and I believe it is safe on vinyl too, it kills the spores which is what you need to do.

Parked boat under a Pecan tree and the sap got all over my white seats and they look nasty.

First I'd use something heavy duty like fantastic or 409. Once the bulk is off I'd try something like clorox cleaner with bleach. try a hidden test area first. Spray it on, let it sit a minute then wipe with a VERY wet towel before you rinse. I'd use the hose to do the final rinse or at least plenty of water. If you've still got sap or stains, after rinsing you might try something like soft scrub with bleach or comet powder, some elbow grease and one of those non stick pot scrubbers that wont scratch your vinyl. Good luck

I am sure there are lots of boaters that have this happen all the time with their boats - even when they are covered, as long as they are left outside for an extended period of time, uncovered or not, the white fiberglass develops a layer of dirt/grime and also spots of black mold where moisture collects. Having been a very rainy humid summer here, my boat sat out in a dirt storage yard (uncovered, I know DUH stupid) - for about 2 months - it is an open center console fishing boat about 20' long, plain white fiberglass interiror, center console, seat in front and behind the console. Typical layout. But the ENTIRE surface of the interior is just covered with a nasty dirty layer of black grime, dirt and mold now. Its a friggin' mess. I know I can just start with the hose and scrub brush an inch at a time, but is there ANY way to safely spray some prep cleaner solution on the entire interior and let it soak in and start disolving some of this mold/grime. I know I can maybe use some kind of cleanser, hot water, and bleach in the water - but with the gelcoat still being new on this boat, and the soft vinyl covered white seat cushions, I hesitate to use too strong of a cleanser or too much bleach since its so easy to damage the surfaces permanently. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Its a balancing act between getting this grime off, and not damaging sensitive surfaces like gelcoat and vinyl upholstry. This is surely one of the most common cleaning challenges everyone with a boat has from time to time - any help is greatly appreciated !!!

I have usually stuck with the bleach, esp when mold is involved. Some mildew sprays like x-14 have bleach in them and are very strong. Clorox clean-up with bleach (the green one, not the blue one) works wonders and I have never had an issue with it on old or new gelcoat. Spray it on, leave it for about 30 sec to a min then use a clean wet rag to get all the gunk off, then hose off. Work in sections, it wont take that long. save the brush for the really bad areas, then go back over with the rag

rinse the whole thing out good first, then you might start with a mild cleaner like 409, spray nine, or fantastic orange, that will clean most of it, save the stronger ones like full strength simple green or the bleach for the tough areas and the mold.

I have had no issue with the vinyl and the bleach spray as long as you don't let it sit more that 30 sec to a min, and since yours are white, you should be good.
