Care and preventative maintenance hints for Megafend products– All Megafend products are designed and engineered to provide years of trouble-free performance. As with most all products used in an outdoor environment, often exposed to harsh weather conditions, periodic preventative maintenance is required to achieve maximum product life.

FENDER HOOKS
• It is recommended that leather surfaces of Megafend Fender Hooks, in particular, the natural and black colors be coated with 100-Percent Pure Neatsfoot Oil routinely twice per month when product is in service under normal outdoor conditions of exposure. White leathers can also be coated but darkening may occur. Severe weather conditions require application once per week. Fender hook leathers designated as MAINTENANCE-FREE surfaces should not be oiled. Damage to the finish will occur.
• Check exposed cap nuts on fender hook hardware, where used, for tightness once a month. Tighten securely as needed.

CHAFE GEAR
Megafend ballistic nylon or fluffy sheep's wool Chafe Gear does not require maintenance. Megafend leather Chafe Gear should be coated with 100-Percent Pure Neatsfoot Oil occasionally to help prevent drying and cracking.

Caution: Use of products containing petroleum distillates or other compound formulas on leather surfaces is strongly NOT RECOMMENDED and will most probably damage the leather. Use only 100% Pure Neatsfoot Oil.

Megafend Marine Grade 100% Pure Neatsfoot Oil is available from your dealer or Megafend directly. See the product accessories page.
