Steve-
I installed Londeck Wave in Speed Racer. Londeck Wave is the exterior version of Lonwave Mirage. It is supposed to be UV & stain resistant. Some of the older Lonwave flooring tends to yellow a little over the years of SoFl sun & salt. As far as cleaning it, a vacuum will get most of the debris out of the pattern. Soap and water and a scrub brush will be all you will need for anything else.
The key to installation is to use their 2 part expoxy adhesive and make sure the floor is extremely clean and the Lonseal is warm. It us much more pliable and easier to cut when it is warm. A hair dryer will help heat the smaller areas you need to cut.
FYI, the roll comes in a 6' width. The Lonwave or Londeck Wave pattern runs the length of the roll, rather than side to side. In order you get the proper direction of the pattern, you will need to lay the flooring with the 6' width from front to back rather than from side to side. If your cockpit is longer than 6' from front to back, then you will need to place the seam under the rear seat.
PM me if you have any other questions about it.

I put the #4 in my Nordic. Way better than carpet. It takes a little effort to keep clean, but when it is, it looks great. Find someone in your area that carries commecial flooring and go from there. Its not cheap. Also be sure to use Lonseals two part epoxy.

Re: Lonseal/Pirelli Flooring?
thanks for all the info guys.
im going with the LONCOIN II even though its for indoor use it should hold up fine since the boat is covered most of the time. it should be the easyest to keep clean also.
fyi , from lonseal , if the word "deck" is in the name it is designed for outdoor use.
