T-shirts work well! -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD Actually they don't. they block only part of the UV, and almost none if wet. Try http://www.solarveil.com/123.asp And you do not want the affects of too much sun. Yesterday and today have been visits to the dermatologist. Scrape and burn on 2 spots and a Mohs surgery on a 3rd spot. Bill But, they're 'vinyl-safe'. And, I was obviously talking about a Solarveil shirt! :) -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD |

Besides, I usually got the boat moving too fast for any bugs to land (and stay) on me anyhows. ...of course I suspose there is that problem of bugs "sticking" to be with all that gooey sunblocker smeared all over me. LOL Some years back, I put on a heavy layer of 'Bullfrog' and then picked up a pair of binocs... which instantly acquired a custom-molded grip that I found difficult to put down... that's how I know! Yer kidding! good Gawd... thats amazing. (and not something you see everyday) DSK |

Guys.... what of my swelled up spots on my vinyl from the Copertone "Sport" sunblock? Is this a known thing or a known chemical reaction? Can't I stop it, reverse it ? |

I'd try calling Coppertone and see if they have any ideas. I can think of none, other than recovering the cushions. You may try calling the boat manufacturer and seeing if they would consider selling or maybe giving you some new cushions, or at least the covers. -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD |

![]() "Mr Wizzard" wrote in message ... So someone gave me this little travel-size tube Interesting. About twenty lines decrying the problems your sunblock causes on vinyl, but only 1 line mentioning that the same sunblock causes temporary blindness. Could you explain your sense of priorities, please? I am all a-twitter with anticipation. |

I strongly suspect that this is unreversable. You will probably need to replace or recover your seats. -Raf -- Misifus- Rafael Seibert http://www.ralphandsue.com |
