Pesky stains in malibu vinyl

(cathy) · (cathy) **Join Date: Sep 2004** 07-09-2006, 11:58 AM

Any recommendations on cleaners to remove stains from vinyl? They are marks from oak leaves. I also read somewhere that malibu's vinyl is tricky to remove stains from???

Thanks in advance!

I only use magic eraser on my vinyl. Nothing works better in my experience so far.

I agree with Troy Magic eraser works wonders. Use it by itself first if stains still dont come out use it with fantastic

use denatured alcohol..rub it hard, rinse with water and then let the sun hit it!

magic eraser, then magic eraser with fantastic, after that give it a few outings and the sun will make it disappear.

What the secret of the eraser, just the material it's made of? They're amazing!

On a previous post, it was pointed out that they work because of the material they are made of. They have no chemicals or cleaner on them. AMAZING, considering how well they work. They are very cheap also. Reminds me, time to do mine again

Anybody know how to get rust off of vinyl? I had some rust transfer onto my vinyl and the magic eraser isn't getting it off. CRL didn't work and Goof off was working, but it also started to discolor the material so I stopped.

One of my regular riders brought me some Magic Erasers. Got that stain out right there pulling out of the dock. Cool.

After trying every chemical known to man and a pressure washer, I gave up. After a couple hours of Magic Eraser and Fantastic it looked brand new again.

Hi Guys,

Many thanks for the info on the Magic Erasers. Im now searching for info on Fantastic.

Can someone please post a link? I found this product but am unsure if this is what you are all referring too?
