If left out to the elements, it won’t be long before your brand new watercraft’s seat will lose its luster and vibrant colors. That’s just a fact. No matter how much time and development the OE manufacturers put into developing new and advanced materials, if the owner doesn’t keep the ski covered, some degradation is going to happen.
Equally, contaminants like sunscreen, gasoline and even harsh cleaners can discolor and even leech out essential oils in the vinyl to keep it soft and pliable, resulting in cracking and tears. That’s why BlackTip Jetsports offers such a massive array of quality seat covers – not only to return the once-new look and feel of your PWC but also a chance to toss in a little personal flair.
Believe it or not, recovering a cracked, torn or discolored seat cover is surprisingly easy. We’ve shown you how to do it before. And thanks to BlackTip, installation instructions and tips are at the ready as well. Recently, they even published this video showing a timelapse installation of a new cover on the front and rear seats from a pre-2010 Sea-Doo GTX – illustrating that a new BlackTip cover can be installed after removing the old cover, or directly over the existing cover.
The latter is not ideal, because of fitment and increased chance of moisture penetration and collection, removing the existing cover is the preferred method. Yes, removing all of the staples can be tedious work, but beginning with a nice, clean working surface is always the preferred way to do things. So check out the video below and head on over to BlackTip’s webstore to see what patterns and colors would look best for you!
