Hey guys. My seats are white and for the life if me, I cannot seem to get them clean. I've used all kinds of products with no success.

Any suggestions??

What I've found works well is Serious Marine Cleaner, from Yacht Brite. If that doesn't work, you can use Yacht Brite's Buff Magic, and then treat the seats with a protectant. Just be a little careful when using Buff Magic, because it does have a abrasive quality to it. Wipe off with a micro-fiber towel.

For protection of Vinyl, I use Mequires Vinyl Protectant.

You can get it from Westmarine, or shurhold.com. Buff Magic is not cheap, but it is the best all around cleaner/oxidation remover I have found. When I restored my older whaler, I used it to restore the gel coat to it's original shine.
