Anyone know of a good marine vinyl cleaner ? I have some dark mildew or fungus stains that need more than just soap and water,need something that won't harm the vinyl.

I'll often start with just soap, a sponge and some elbow grease. My dealer swears by Mean Green on seating.
I've also been know to use a weak bleach/water solution. Let sit and hose off with plenty of water. May need a second application.
My favorite detergent type sprays are Awesome (yellow) @ Dollar General @ $1 per spray bottle. I like Zep Orange Degreaser even better, as it even cleans paint off hands. I also like the Mr. Clean Magic Sponges to get the most stubborn stains off anything.

I use magic erasers and treat the vinyl after to prevent drying out/cracking

Careful with the magic eraser on the threads.
If it is actually mildew stains you will probably need a small diluted amount of bleach.

Yes,I had thought of diluted bleach solution with good ole liquid soap and warm water but didn't know if it would have a detrimental affect on the vinyl. It is a large area,front and rear deck and will require more than just a spray bottle.I don't think a really mild spplication followed by good rinsing would hurt ?

I repeat.... Roll off!
Much better than magic eraser or bleach & water. I've tried them all... After you've tried them and they don't work .... Try Roll Off . If that don't work.... Forgetaboutit.

It says on the container that you can dilute it. I think just for general use a quart would do. But, for a whole deck I would get a gallon.
