Dolphinite no longer here Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I finally finished the installation of my awning on my '85 Dolphin. I got it used for $250 from someone who was parting out a camper near my home. It's a little over 10 feet long and is in pretty good shape. The fit was good for the most part, but even though I mounted it as high as possible, the lower part of the case lays on the very top of the rear window frame and just comes into contact with the top of the door. Everything works, though. Has anyone ever tried to clean the fabric and if so, what did you use? John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontanaChinook Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Looks great! I'll be figuring something out for my Chinook this summer, even if it's just an ez-up or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 star bright boat upholstery cleaner will make it look brand new, but do a test first; the stuff is very simlar to bleach so you dont want to let it set too long; but longer for stubborn stains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I like Oxyclean for all fabrics. Won't bleach the fabric but gets tons of stains out and removes most smells. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
