So first weekend on the new to us boat. I'm usually pretty sensitive to allergens while my 5 year old daughter has not seemed to inherit that from me, yet.
She seems pretty stuffed up and burning eyes this weekend and it may very well be a cold but it got me thinking about a few battles I have on this boat including some old mold in a forward locker (another post).
My wife asked about washing the headliner and my first reaction is to wonder what kind of damage that could do to the adhesive. It's in really great shape and although I thought it was pretty clean to start with I'm now second guessing that the more I look at it...since the boats always been in heated storage there is no opportunity for dust mites to get frozen!
Has anyone run a hand held or professional steam cleaner to there boat with success and not damaging the adhesive? I'm sure I could come up on a dry day, hammer it out and let it dry properly.
Thoughts?
