Cleaning a rib
Hi Folks
Just took delivery of a used Zodiac YL 310 R. Age unknown but looks very good, if a bit dirty. Can anyone recommend a good cleaner? I am having trouble finding specs for this rib and I don't know what the material of the floats is.
Thanks

I think the last 2 digits of the serial # indicate the year it was made.

I'm 99 % sure the material is PVC. Zodiac calls it Strongan.
