Any ideas to clean the fabric and pipes that corroded on my Eskimo quick flip.

When it gets warm out. (notice i did not say nice out) Set it up in the yard get some mild detergent and scrub it good rinse well. As for the Poles you will have to sand them down or use steel wool. Then coat them. I like dry graphite but a good silicone spray will work to. Check them again in the fall. Coat em again.

Craighas , I looked on a Sailing forum for your answer . They say some type of vinegar solution . May not get it all out though .
