The canvas covers on my Creek Co. ODC 816 are pretty dirty. especially the bottom. I want to apply the 303 treatment but want to clean them first. The new carrier will make it easy to use the local quarter car wash but the dirt is well ground in. Any suggestions for something to apply before pressure washing them?
Castrol Super Clean or “Purple” cleaner(same thing). Unbelieveable what this stuff does. Make sure your whole cover is wet before and cover it evenly with the cleaner or you will have ‘spots’. Get it off quickly and then put a protectant on.
I’ve de-greased engines with that “Purple Power” and it’s great stuff!
I wasn’t sure, tho’, what it’d do to my Creek boat, so I tried old “Simple Green”, before stowing the boat away last year. Cleaned it like it was new!
Yo, Jack, call up a local place that sells rafts and caters to the rafting crowd. I bought a spray on cleaner made for rafts. Also use 303 products

for protecting the covers of my inflatables.
The 303 is expensive, but you’ve made big investment in your kickboat. Treat it right.
HI-------- I just bought a gallon of 303 for 59.00 free shipping. That comes out to .46 cents a ounce thats a lot less than buying it by the 12 ounce dispencer.

Which 303 product do you use? I sort of got lost in the web site, they sure do have a bunch of products!
