When was the last time you washed a load of whites with bleach and they disentegrated? They don't!! Neither will the stitches on your boat funiture. X-14 contains caustic, the really nasty ingredient in bleach. As long as you clean the seats again with some kind of cleaner or even soap and water and rinse thouroughly you won't have a problem. My best freind works for Clorox in ATL and make it every day. He went to one of the local marinas a few years ago when he got a small mildew spot. They sold him a quart of StrarBrightfor about $7.00. He bought two. When we got home he actually read the active ingredients and realized he had just bought BLEACH!! $15 dollars for a half gallon of something he gets at work for FREE. We took it back and bought BEER!!

Where id dithe myth that bleach will destroy the stitching come form? My guess is marina's trying to sell disguiesed bleach for $28 a gallon. The key is the washin and rnsing afterward. But that has more to do with the vynil itslef, and not the thread. My underwear withstands bleaching, and the thread in it is a LOT thinner.
