Upholstery cleaner and conditioner question

[greg g]

I've recently purchased an '02 EbbTide 210 Campione' that was in very good shape but after a few outings and cleanings I have noticed what appears to be mildew on the edges of the engine cover and places that are hard to clean and get overlooked. What should I use to get the black spots off? I dont want to start off too aggressive and maybe streak/stain the red parts of the upholstery. After it gets clean whats a good product to use to help keep it all soft, looking good, and to help prevent the black spots or at least make them easier to get off?

Thx

I think some photos would really help here...

OK, I had a "DUH" moment and it was dark when I finished up. I will definitely get some tomorrow and post up

If it is mildew, you can use something as simple as a dilute bleach /water solution, but I'm a fan of 3M Mildew cleaner. Another great option is a 'magic eraser' - google it. It's available tons of places.

What kind of surfaces are the stains on?

As for protection afterwards, 303 products are great.
