    Cleaning sea deck?

    What the best way to clean sea deck. The cockpit in my phoenix looks like the local playground and it hasn't even been in the water yet. What's the best product and way?

    What do the instructions say in the literature that came with your boat when you bought it?

    The same dirt and grime is there just buried in the fibers of the carpet. I don't understand why bass boats don't go the way of salt water boats with no carpet so it's easily sprayed out.

    I use Mr. Clean straight, with bad stains you might need to use a brush, but for the most part it works well

    I bet Armor All makes it slicker than snot! I would not advise that!

    I have a similar product Aqua traction. A semi stiff bristle brush will be helpful.

    Dawn and a light pressure wash. Scrubbing will wear it down quickly.

    My father in law's boat looks terrible in the cockpit area. It even looks worn on the edges and his boat is less than a year old. I will never have it installed in mine. The new Nitro in the Bass Pro show room I looked at last night already had stains.

    Rinse with a garden can of water (or hose). Spray with “Tuff Stuff” cleaner. Quick scrub with a soft/medium bristle brush. Rinse.
