Can the Dacron Sails be dyed to cover up stains that soap and water will not remove. If you know ofa solution please email me at dbh73061@yahoo.com

sail stains

Dan, You might do well to contact an outfit in Pennsylvania called Sail Care. The clean, repair, and reimpregnate the dacron to give them the stiffness of new dacs. I couldn't believe the difference in my sails when I got them back. They did a great job, and it sure beat buying new. I believe their email address is www.sailcare.com This might be better than dying or painting your sails to cover the stains. Marty

Bleach

I used 2 cups- Resolve with 1 cup- bleach added top a galon of water. Worked OK for rust stains. Don't let the bleach stay on more that 5 minute at a time. I had to apply it twice.
