HELP! Black swim deck prints on white seats!
Anyone else have black footprints on boat seats in their Moomba from the black "rubber" swim platform? Very hard to remove too!!

Untill i get around to replacing with Seadec as many on hear have done,i've clearcoated mine with spray laquer and problem solved at least temporary anyway. It does make it slippery but footprints stop as well.
Seadec is the better solution but this does work.07 Outback DD

FYI, your Seadek pad order can take 4-6 weeks. Your CC will not be charged till the order is ready. If you want it, order it right away. Good luck!

www.seadek.com - they make custom swim pads, it is much nicer then stock.

The issue is with the supplier of the black pads. The rubber oxidizes, as most things do in the sun, and degrades to a point where the pigment leeches out of the black pad. Thus, sticking to feet and whatever else and tracking all over everything.
The SeaDek is for sure the way to go. Turst me, I'm with you in the frustration in having to replace a fairly new pad - but you'll be happy you did. Even if my black pad hadn't been wearing out, I think I would have changed out the pad.2015 Supra SC400

ditto on making the switch to Seadek even though the OEM pad was nearly new. Bonus is my wife thinks it was some of the best $$ spent on the boat. Originally Posted by squeeg333
