The most outer layer of the mattress is vinyl. You should check out this page (see below what they say about this specific mattress) and you can follow their suggestions on better options https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150355883242799 As an example, top-selling Sealy Baby Firm Crib Mattress uses a vinyl cover, coated with proprietary antibacterial STAPH-GARD. Despite stating on their website that their product "does not contain any harmful chemicals" and "does not contain toxic fire retardants," they refused to provide information about how they meet flammability standards or clarify what chemicals make up STAPH-GARD. Vinyl manufacturing requires use of toxic chemicals, and chemicals must be added to vinyl to make it flexible.

I bought the gray cover, and it is clearly vinyl. I can't address the tan colored cover, since I didn't buy it. We use ours on a covered patio, and it works well as a dust cover and to protect against light moisture. It's not exposed to heavy rain or strong wind.

The reason they tell you to cover the RV with plastic sheeting is because when you clean the roof, the black will run down the sides of the RV, then you will need to wash the RV to get it clean. You don't need the sheeting just to put the coating on the roof. I put 3 coats on the roof 3 years ago [ it was totally down to the rubber after I cleaned it ]. Still looking good. Will probably put another coat on this year just because I still have a gallon left.

I'd suggest searching for the install instructions. I don't have vinyl install experience, but I'm not sure what benefit you are trying to get with this.

If you're referring to the smell of vinyl or plastic- no. To be honest I haven't noticed anything untowards.

This is not really a wax-- rather a wax fortifier or glaze. It's probably a wax formulation but highly diluted. I'd keep it off vinyl, leather and most non-glossy plastics.

Hi Jowles, here is the MSDS for the product. I asked the same question once upon a time. Notice it is 110g/l Also, what i learned is that the VOC used is "Dipropylene glycol methyl ether" which is apparently less toxic than other VOCs used in commercial products. I have used lots of Poly BP and it is not so noxious to breathe...only when I would use it for hours did the smell bother me some, but part of that was just getting tired of the same smell for long hours. Here is the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS): http://www.afmsafecoat.com/downloads/thwfwl5006%20Polyureseal%20BP%20Gloss%20msds%202008.pdf Good luck and hope this helps...Jack

With an organics vapor mask to protect my lungs and not sound like a chain smoker afterwards. Test on scrap metal before as it to cover urethane basecoat. Not sure what VHT is made of but you want to probably let it cure, scuff with 600-1000 grit and make sure it doesn't wrinkle when applying the spraymax clear.

It is not vinyl. It is definitely rubber. It has that weird new rubber smell but it wears off.

Vinyl. I've been happy with the door. Helps with noise and heating/cooling.

It is thick and would keep it clean but I can not answer to if it is safe to store in plastic for a long period of time. Contact mfg. It is a quality product and did not smell of plastic.

plain or distilled water for the majority of cleanimg, or a 70-91% Isopropyl alcohol for the rubber around the seal to clean off skin oils Depending on what you need to clean. Don't use anything that will attack the plastic. Plain water for the face shield, high pressure air for the nook and crannies. Also be sure not to over use the filters and make sure you get the correct ones for what you are srpaying. Don't use any car cleaning products for plastics. maybe the clorox wipe pads, but make sure to test and if no rash appears on your skin, it likely will be ok. I say this as when you have it on you don't want any vapors being trapped in there with your face and eyes. Any other perto based cleaner may attack the plastic, ie break down the polymers and them the seal fails. Worse case buy a new mask and ask is the health of my eyes and lungs worth the cost?

Yes you can use this on non-vinyl/plastic carpet. However it does produce a strong odor for 2-3 days after application, so if indoors you will want to apply it only on those days where you can open all doors, windows, etc. for adequate ventilation. In our case we often leave for the first night or so to avoid the odor. After adequate drying there is no residual smell nor any discoloration of materials. As for effectiveness, it is an excellent product that protects for several years. Also, you need to know that there are two similar products. One provides UV protection only. The other has a wax additive that adds waterproofing. We use the latter on all outdoor applications. Both have given us excellent protection aboard our sailboat. What else is there to say? We like and have used these two products for years. Good luck and may the wind favor your application.

It looks like vinyl to me, but it could be wire coated in vinyl. I recommend this unit. It's wonderful for hanging a lot of laundry at one time, and it folds up quickly and with no problems whatsoever.

hi, I like your post. I just want to know more about "vinyl". We just got our huge sectional recovered with "faux leather".. aka vinyl. since the denim slipcover was old and the couch was still great! Also, my husband has allergies... and leather or vinyl is easier to keep clean. but the smell is terrible!! I had done a lot of research on the feel and look.. but never heard a thing about the health concerns or SMELL!!! I am encouraged by your post.. but still nervous it may not be safe.. and also. wondering if this smell will EVER go away?!!

Yes, It is a vinyl cover. Fits perfect. Worth the money, considering what you've already invested in the smoker.
