My bimini top looks like it has mildew on the bottom or underside of it. This top is one of the cheap ones with white marine vinyl on top and a canvas looking backing under. I've never rolled it up wet. What can I clean this with? What will keep it from coming back? Thanks for any ideas,<br /> dooger.

Re: bimini top

dooger, a good way to clean it would be to add some mild detergent like "woolite" and about a Half cup of bleach to a 1/2 bucket of warm water and use a soft brush to work the mixture into the canvas side and let it sit for 15 minutes and rinse thoughorly with a hose. Easier to do "OFF the boat" allow it to air dry.

Re: bimini top

Make sure that you rinse very thoroughly. Bleach is tough on thread.
