Hello,
We bought an Ericson 27' a few days ago and the main sail has some mildew stains from sitting in the weather for an extended period of time. Here is what I am thinking about doing. I have a recipe for homemade oxyclean, using hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and distilled water. I am thinking I can raise the sail a foot at a time, clean the exposed area, then raise it another foot, clean that area, and keep doing that until the sail if fully up the mast, then rinse it off with a sprayer hose.
Will this work, or should I take it off and do it while it is laid out on the dock?
Thanks
