Very odd situation, but it looks like the cover on my 2007 horizon has bled onto my seats. I used a concentrated but dilluted 303 to clean the seats, but it must have helped the transfer of color from the cover to the seats. I have used a magic eraser to no avail. Has anyone had this problem before or does anyone have a solution? Not crazy about having a light purple shade on my white vinyl seats.

Go ahead and leave the vinyl exposed to the sun. That should take it out.

I am absolutely amazed at that fact that after scrubbing and scrubbing, 2 hours in the sun did in fact fade the color away. Thanks for the advice, but how do I keep this from happening again? I am assuming that I should dillute the 303 a little more.

Glad to hear the sun technique worked. Its pretty amazing how something free works better than all these fancy expensive chems.

I'm not very familiar with the 303 but if it is making your cover bleed through into the vinyl you might want to use something a bit more mild or trying the dilution to make it more mild. I would also recommend u not use the 303 the next few times to ensure that is the culprit.

My whole boat is constantly covered in 303- inside and out. I bought a big container of concentrated 303 (303 Industrial cleaner gallon concentrate) and may have not diluted it enough.
