So someone gave me this little travel-size tube
of Coppertone "Sports" SPF 30 sunblocker, right? Turns out the **** is attacking my vinyl seats in my brand new Bayliner 175 Capri !. So I got two drops on the front seats (in the bowrider section), and now I got this swelled up, yellowish, soft spot on the front seat. To make matters worse, I extended the seats the other day, and come to find out that I have a similar huge soft spot in between the crack of the drivers seat. Some must of oozed off my back and into the seat crack. So I don't know what to do now. The swelled up, soft spots arn't good, and I've been spraying rubbing alcohol, water, and other stuff on it to try and get the stuff to migrate back out of the vinyl with no luck. This **** is evil I tell ya. So has anyone else noticed this? What is in this **** to do this? And what can I do to try and stop these spots from doing anymore damage to the vinyl, or did the stuff already break down the vinyl beyond hope? And your eyes? ****!, so NOT get this **** in your eyes - I was blinded for an hour after getting some of this **** in my eyes. Is there a "vinyl-safe" sun blocker out there ?? Thanks! |

Never seen that happen before....we've used lots of diff. sunscreens in the
boat, and none have ever done that... I do know that ArmorAll is bad for vinyl (at least it used to be) since it has alcohol in it. We use STP vinyl treatment with UV protectant.

Sunblock, bug repelent?.... - whats the connection? hehe 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.

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 |

I quit working and had all these white shirts left. They are great on a
boat as sunblockers. And no tie. Sweet! |
