Cleaning My Sails

Post by lustyslogger »

You've heard of "Red Sails in the Sunset"? I have a bad case of "Grey Sails in the Sunset". I do believe the sails on my boat are the original sails and the boat was built in 1978. So, I took them off the boat and brought them home. I intend to scrub them but I don't know with what. Any suggestions of what I could use. Surprisingly, the sails are in good shape other than being dirty. They are still stiff with no tears or unraveling.

Thanks
