Cleaning recommendations
If you want your cockpit covers, bimini tops, dodgers,
seat covers and solar protection screens to keep the
best aspect as long as possible, it is essential to
follow the cleaning instructions below.
Cleaning should be done according to frequency of use
and exposure of the product. We recommend regular
cleaning, at least four times a year, to clear out dirt
caused by atmospheric pollution.
For wooden boats, in order to avoid any migration risks,
it is essential to avoid all contact between the coated
side of the fabric and the boat’s protective wood
varnish.
1 – Spread the fabric out on a flat surface. Dampen
the fabric with clear water. Spray on Serge Ferrari
Cleaner 500 or add a diluted solution of non-agressive
liquid soap.
2 – Leave to act for 2 or 3 minutes according to degree
of dirt.
3 – Use a natural bristle brush to brush out to the
edges.
4 – Rinse with a lot of clear water to remove all traces
of the soapy solution.
If the product comes in contact with other materials,
rinse immediately.
5 – In case of severe dirt and grime, repeat the
cleaning process.
6 – Repeat steps 1 to 3 on the reverse side of the
fabric.
7 – Hang up the Stamoid fabric and leave until
completely dry.
8 – As soon as the fabric is completely dry, you can put
it back in place to protect your boat.
