CANVAS STORAGE AND CARE

Proper care and maintenance of the canvas will maximize its useful life. The fabric used on this boat is ClimaShield® Plus, a 600 denier,

solution dyed polyester fabric that has DWR (durable water repellant) coating on the outside and a mildew inhibitor on the underside. To

keep this material performing well against the elements, the following instructions should be followed.

1. Never store the cover while it is wet or dirty. Make sure the cover is completely dry and clean prior to storage as this will help prevent

mildew growth which will damage the fabric.

2. Clean the cover with mild soap and water to remove dirt, bird droppings, etc. Do not steam, pressure wash, use harsh cleaners or bleach.

3. Prevent sharp objects, solvents and hot items from coming in contact with all canvas parts.

4. Do not allow ice, water, or snow to accumulate on the cover as this may cause damage.
