August Race Liquid RIB is a fast acting RIB, dinghy and inflatable cleaner. It gently removes ground in dirt, salt deposits and oxidisation leaving a bright, clean finish.
The August Race Liquid RIB is a highly effective, professional-grade inflatable boat cleaner specially formulated to restore and revive dull, dirty, or oxidized tubes. Trusted internationally by some of the world’s leading RIB manufacturers, including Cobra, Ribeye, Ribcraft, and Brig this fast-acting cleaner penetrates deep into the fabric to effortlessly lift away stubborn grime, salt crusting, grease, and exhaust soot.
Whether your boat features PVC or Hypalon tubes, Liquid RIB safely cuts through deep-seated dirt without compromising the integrity of the fabric or damaging structural seams. It is an essential addition to your boat maintenance toolkit for pre-season preparation, mid-season spruce-ups, or winterisation.
For the best results, always work out of direct sunlight and clean your boat in small, manageable sections (approximately 1 metre at a time) to prevent the cleaner from drying on the surface.
Once your RIB is clean and completely dry, we highly recommend applying a protective coat of August Race LR Sealer UV to lock in the finish and shield the fabric from future UV fading and salt staining.

If there's a question you have about August Race Liquid RIB Fast Acting Rib Cleaner see if it has been asked already or ask us the question and we will attempt to answer it for you.
Answer: Yes. For the best results, always work out of direct sunlight and clean in small, manageable sections (about 1 metre at a time). Apply the cleaner, agitate gently in a circular motion with a cloth or soft brush, and rinse thoroughly with fresh water before moving to the next section to prevent the product from drying on the tube. Once your RIB or inflatable is clean and completely dry, we highly recommend applying a protective coat of August Race LR Sealer UV to lock in the finish and shield the fabric from future UV fading, salt crusting, and stains.
Answer: If your inflatable tubes have been exposed to the elements, it is completely normal to see some colour transfer onto your microfibre cloth during the first application. Liquid RIB acts similarly to a cutting compound on faded car paintwork; it gently lifts away the dead, oxidized, and sun-perished top microns of material to reveal the fresh, vibrant, undamaged fabric underneath. Once this oxidized layer is gone, the colour transfer will stop, leaving an "as-new" finish.
Answer: Yes, absolutely. August Race Liquid RIB is uniquely formulated to be 100% safe and highly effective on both PVC and Hypalon fabrics. Because of its gentle yet fast-acting formula, it is trusted and used internationally by some of the world's leading RIB manufacturers, including Cobra Ribs, Ribeye, Ribcraft, and Brig for regular detailing and deep tube restoration.
