It's a add on item so I'll order it when I order my amp. If it takes a while to get no biggie since it's less than $5 and I'm in good shape right now

Forgot to mention it in my OP, but I found it in the RV section in Walmart and they have it available online as well.

Shopping in Walmart yesterday and found this product. (Amazon link. Same price.)

https://www.amazon.com/Camco-41093-Pro-Strength-Mildew-Remover/dp/B00SL2NF2Y

Tried a couple of different vinyl cleaners with little success. Especially on the textured surface on seats. Was pleased with the results. Second pic shows where cushion was cleaned in place and the clean/dirty line.

My upholstery guy recommended simple green. Also just sitting out in the sun will fade most stains.

@scokill, do you use simple green often? Is that too powerfull? I would expect most cleaners would remove whatever protectant is on the seats. I would expect that every time you clean you have to reapply protectant....

Remove what type of protectant? Protectants sit on the surface and would be removed in a variety of ways including just sitting on the seats. I've used a variety of cleaners over the years and they all really work the same in my opinion.

Got it today!
So... how do you guys use it? Strait up on a microfiber towel? Rinse, no rinse?

This seems great for every now and then... what about something to use weekly?
https://jetboaters.net/threads/good-results-using-mary-kate-ultra-vinyl-cleaner.10696/

That stuff is great and easy to use. It has kept my seats looking better than new. Stitches show no signs of wear either. Anyone on here that has seen my boat in person can vouch for how bright and clean they are and it's because I use that cleaner every time I take the boat home after use.


Screenshot from a video I shot yesterday to give you an idea how clean the seats and bright still look in natural light...
