How about on their folding boat? Drybags? etc Absolutely. It's the perfect thing for hypalon, vinyl and polyurethane folding boat hulls. I coat all my folding boat hulls with it once or twice a year. I once bought a used Folbot, sight unseen, that arrived with really bad hull oxidation. I cleaned it up with 303 and it's looked like new for a couple of years. I don't use it on drybags as they're not exposed much to UV, but I put it on my deck bag and the inflatable float and pump I keep on the deck. The 303 fabric treatment is great for those parts of a boat made of uncoated synthetics. I use it topsides on Folbots and older Feathercrafts. -- mike --------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Edelman mje_at_spamcop.net http://www.foldingkayaks.org (nomadics) http://www.findascope.com (choosing a telescope) *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
