I have rust and oil stains in my hood, maindrop or lazy bag. Can these be removed?

In general, we can remove this stubborn contamination very well. If the object contains so many rust or oil stains, it is possible that minimal traces will still be visible because the fabric itself has already been affected.

How do mold and weather stains arise and can they be removed?

Weather or spoch is a permanent material deterioration of textiles. Weather stains in clothing or pieces of fabric such as ship's sail are caused by having been damp for a long time. Weather is visible as dark spots (dots) that cannot be washed out. This is also called spoch. The damage to boat covers, for example, is caused by fungi that thrive in a moist environment and live on organic particles. Stashed textiles can contaminate uninfected textiles. If left untreated, it will lead to permanent damage and holes in the material. If the object is affected by mold or weather stains, we can easily remove this. When the object is subsequently recoated, the mold is less likely to adhere to the surface. However, there is no guarantee that mold will not return.

If you want to try to quickly remove recurring weather stains yourself, you could do the following. Fill a plant sprayer with nine parts water and one part chlorine bleach. You can then spray this over the weather spots and let it sit for fifteen minutes. Consider the floor and benches. Keep plenty of water on hand to immediately clean any other items. After the soaking time, you should rinse it with plenty of water. It is better not to use a hard brush or other soap and cleaning products. This gives you the chance to damage the applied or existing coating, which will only make the problem worse.

Maintain the hood, main drop and lazy bag for a neat boat appearance

Regular maintenance of your hood, main drop or lazy bag is not only crucial for the protection and functioning of your sails, but it also contributes to the attractive business card of your boat. These parts contribute to the general appearance of your vessel. It is therefore essential that they look neat and tidy. At ZONklaar we understand this like no other. We offer extensive maintenance services for your hood, lazy bag or main drop, so that they look as good as new again.

Our thorough cleaning method

Our process starts with carefully spraying the object under reduced pressure to remove all dirt. Then we let it soak for ten to fifteen hours in a specially developed basin. This guarantees the removal of even the most stubborn dirt. After soaking, the loosened dirt is removed in our spray booth. Then the object is hung up to dry and a final check can take place.

Finally, we carry out a full inspection, and if necessary, we can carry out repairs. At ZONklaar we always strive for the best possible result, and we are committed to keeping your canvas work in excellent condition.
