I am trying to determine what products are ok to use with<\/p>\n
* Marathon 3DL 2004 140% Genoa
\n* Marathon 3DL 2003 90% Jib
\n* Ace Dacron Challenger Cloth 2002 Main<\/p>\n
for light cleaning, I have been using just mild dishwashing soap and no bleach and rinsing the sails in the fall, but would like to see if one of the following would be ok. I would like to use<\/p>\n
* 20 Mule Team Borax Natural Laundry Booster (sodium tetraborate decahydrate)
\n* Oxi Magic Mullti-purpose stain remover (Chlorine Bleach free) which has Sodium Percarbonate and Sodium Carbonate in it.<\/p>\n
Are the two products above okay to use with the above sails?<\/p>\n
Also my lines have some green mold\/mildew and I’d like to see if I can use one of these on them as well
\nThe lines are basically :<\/p>\n
* Braided Nylon sheets and dock lines 1\/2″
\n* StaSet-X halyards 3\/8″
\n* Amsteel soling stay<\/p>\n
I have not used any chlorox bleach.

I had both Jibs coated with Sailcote Plus about 5 years ago to help with the mildew problem and it seems to be working but this year we had more than usual on one jib and I need to clean it better than mild soap would do.<\/p>\n
Thanks,

Hi Rick:<\/p>\n
We have had good success using a pressure washer on dock and control lines for cleaning. For sails I would suggest checking with your sailmaker.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
