Cleaners
Cleaners special for inflatable boats, should be used only and not discharged
into waterways. Never mix cleaners and be sure to use plenty of ventilation in
enclosed area. DO NOT use strong detergents, solvents or products, which
contain phosphates, chlorine, solvents, non‑biodegradable or petroleum‑based
products. Cleaning your Quicksilver boat can best be done using special
cleaner for inflatable boats.
IMPORTANT: Waxes or cleaners containing alcohol or hydrocarbons SHOULD
NOT BE USED on the boat fabric. These products will prematurely dry out or
damage the boat fabric.
Wash boat with fresh water after use of soap and cleaners.
Repairs
If you have any damage to your Quicksilver inflatable boat, it is strongly
advised to go to your Mercury dealer for the repairs.
If the damage is a small puncture you can use the material found in the repair
kit.
Larger areas or if patch will overlap a seam should be patched by a
professional repair technician at an inflatable repair station. Contact your local
Quicksilver dealer for the nearest inflatable repair station.
LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE
If the boat loses air pressure, first check the valves. Use a plant sprayer to
spray a mix of water and soap on and around the valves. If you see air bubbles
around the valves, please take the following steps:
• Take the valve key out of your repair kit.
• Put the valve key into the valve and turn the key clockwise and check for
air bubbles again.
• If the valve still leaks, take back of valve in your hand and turn the valve
stem with the key to the left (counterclockwise) and take out the valve
stem.
• Inspect the valve for damage.
• If there is any damage, take the defective valve to your selling dealer.
• Install and lubricate valve stem with silicone or soapy water solution to
ease installation.
• In case of persistent air leakage, contact your dealer and check warranty
conditions.
PVC REPAIRS
For the best results when gluing, the relative humidity should be less than 60%,
ambient air temperature should be between 18 °C to 25 °C (65 °F to 77 °F) and
not in direct sunlight.
