    Be careful with the magic eraser. I agree that it works great. I use them all the time. But, they are abrasive-- like extremely fine sandpaper. They will take the UV protection off your interior. If you have to use them, make sure you apply a protectant afterward or you risk sun damage.

    when you put the seadeck pad on do you remove the rubber pad that comes with the swim platform? if so is it difficult to do? Also, how does the seadeck pad hold up to putting skis and boards on on the swim platform?

    I think every one of us has who replaced the pad with Seadek has removed the old pad. I have removed two pads in the last 3 years on 2 different boats. It takes 10-15 min. to get the pad off. If you use Goof off or a similar product it takes about 45 min. to an hour to clean, scrape and clean again the platform to get it ready. While the pad is off I recommend using rubbing compound and then polishing compound to buff out any scratches on the paint around the edges so your finished job looks good. Position the new pad (or pads if you use the 3 piece one) and tape one edge in place. Then flip the pad up and remove the backing and press it back down. Get it right the first time as there is no moving it around.

    The pad is extremely durable. When they put this stuff in fishing boats they clean fish right above it and then just hose it off. We stand on it and put boards on all the time. I absolutely love it.

    thanks for the info KB- definitely on the upgrade list for next year. I was envisioning that it was more of a foam pad but it sounds much more durable than that.

    crap is that seadek expensive!!!!!! I'll definitly keep it in mind though when it is time to replace mine. I've noticed a couple of small tears in it, probably from the wakeboard fin...

    See post #24 above. Not too hard. About a 3-4 beer job cuz it takes a little persistence.
