    Marine 31’s Mildew Remover Combo - Review

    ​For this review I’m going to share my experience using Marine 31’s Mildew Remover Combo on my brother-in-law recently purchased pre-owned bass boat:



    First up Mildew Remover:




    From Marine31’s product page for Mildew Remover:
    Marine 31 Mildew Remover quickly and safely removes stubborn mildew stains on virtually all marine surfaces, including vinyl seat cushions, rubber fenders, fiberglass, gel coat, canopies, and more! Marine 31 Mildew Remover forgoes volatile cleaners and instead relies on smart chemistry; even severe mildew growth is no match for the incredible cleaning power of Marine 31 Mildew Remover.”
    Mildew Remover Instructions:



    The mildew build up is pretty bad across multiple surfaces, most noticeable the gauge cluster and seats.


    After spraying onto the seats, waiting a few minutes, and then buffing dry you can clearly see how well the mildew remover works in this 50/50 shot:




    Close up:




    Gauge cluster, before:








    Mildew Remover in action:







    Mildew Remover works amazingly fast. I enjoyed watching the mildew disappear moments after applying it. I did notice a slight bleach like odor but Marine31 claims this is a eco friendly and acid free product so I’m not sure what chemical wizardry is at play but it works!

    Prior to the next step, all surfaces were given a through rinse and dry per instructions.


    Next up Mildew Guard.


    Now that I’ve removed all of the nasty mildew build up, it’s time to protect everything with Mildew Guard:



    From Marine31’s product page for Mildew Guard:
    “Marine 31 Mildew Guard is the solution to a common problem that plagues all boaters – mold and mildew growth on vinyl surfaces. This high-tech vinyl sealant forms a clear coating that protects against UV rays, body oils, salt, and most importantly, stubborn mold and mildew. Treated surfaces will retain their flexibility while being well protected against the damaging effects of nature.”
    Instructions:



    Mildew Guard couldn’t be easier WOWO product to apply. A few sprays onto a clean foam applicator covers an entire seat:




    10 minutes later the 2nd coat is applied, and after a quick buff everything is protected and ready to fight mildew:




    Gauge cluster








    Conclusion
    : Using these products to remove and prevent mildew growth couldn’t be easier. Time will tell how well Mildew Guard does at preventing mildew growth from returning. But Mildew Remover does exactly what it claims to in a very quick and efficient manner. I’ve also used it on some grimy pool floats with equally impressive results.
    Additionally both products are made in the USA

    Awesome review. I love the comparison shots. I have yet to use a Marine 31 product on my boat that I was disappointed in.

    Thank you! Marine 31 mildew remover is awesome stuff. The mildew growth on the gauge cluster was so gross - I`ve been itching to clean it up for a while. Watching the mildew disappear before my eye was fun.

    That review is the first part of an entire bow to stern detail project as the prior owner did very little to keep the boat clean and protected.

    Since you liked the 50/50 shots - here`s a teaser 50/50 of some metal polishing we did on the haul w/ Marine 31 Stainless Steel and Aluminum Brightening Soap:



    Stay tuned!

    Nice work, great review

    I think you should let me use the boat over winter, to keep a continuum for this thread

    Great review. I love Marine 31 products. I use them almost exclusively for my marine and RV work. Their polishes are amazing.

    Nice! Yeah, this boat sits outside on a trailer. Which I`m sure contributed to the mildew build up.

    *8 Month Update!*

    Yesterday was the first time in months the cover has come off the bass boat. And after being covered up through the fall and winter things are still looking nice and mildew free:











    The only spot mildew appears is on the center seat:



    But I think that is largely due to the seat being folded down (as seen in the prior photo) and not given enough air circulation.
    With fishing season here it`s time get the boat back in the water! Thanks Marine 31 Mildew Remover
