Poli glow is amazing for the fiberglass...shines like new. Magic eraser for seats and I keep them conditioned with armor all

Welcome to the MOC strick_52, and congrats on your "new" SX20!

Start with a good vinyl shampoo, like Star-Brite or equivalent. If this doesn't do the trick, then try the magic erasers. They do work wonders on the interior, just make sure you condition them right away with a marine grade conditioner/protectant.

Most of us use 303, it's specially formulated for marine vinyl. Armor-All works great for cars, but doesn't last as long on boat seats because of the increased sun and water exposure.

Starbri tell mold and mildew worked wonders !!! I'll look into this 303 thanks so much for the help guys
