I bought some large orange coloured ball fenders second hand at a jumble, and have fitted them as pontoon fenders to my mooring. Unfortunately they have become very sticky all over the surface, and are leaving a sticky residue on my hull. I'm assuming that it must be something to do with sunlight, but you would imagine that fenders are made out of a material which can withstand UV. Maybe it is because they are very old? Maybe orange fenders are prone to this?
Does anyone have any ideas about what might be causing this, or more importantly how to clean it off and stop it from recurring? I'm hoping not to have to bin them!
