Sail Cleaning

Post by Wind Chime »

Every couple of years I usually clean our sails with a mild soap & water and soft bristle brush, but this year i'd like to really get a good deep clean.

I thought about taking it to the local North Sails loft, or there's also a local shop that specializes in cleaning sails but it's a few hundred bucks cost to get them done.

Any advice?
