Cleaning stains and marks from the BoogieUpdated a year ago

The Boogie is made from PVC material.  The white colour was chosen as it helps keeps the PVC and the battery cool inside if it is left in the sun. Dark coloured inflatable products can burst if left in the sun due softening of seals/ glues as well as the increased pressure from the high temperatures. The down side of white is that is shows dirt, marks and stains easily. 

To clean the Boogie:

  1. First use a mild detergent and scrubbing brush.  Externally can get as wet as you like and can be hosed down.
  2. Underneath the zipper is water resistant, but not waterproof.  Wipe inside with a mild detergent and some water.  
  3. For more stubborn stains and marks a slightly abrasive sponge can be used, like a "scrub daddy"
  4. Isopropyl Alcohol or methylated spirits can be used to help dissolve grease.
  5. Do not use a strong solvent like acetone, this will attack the PVC and cause damage. 
  6. After cleaning the inside, towel dry, and leave the zipper open for a few hours to ensure no moisture gets trapped inside.
