Ah, the dreaded pink mold.* It's a fungus for sure.* Tough part with new vinyl is getting an anti-fungal to the fungus since it's imbedded.* I've heard of success with black spot anti-fungal liquids they sell at the garden shop for roses and tomatoes.* I'd choose a brand with the highest concentration of active ingredients, saturate a thin white towel or t-shirt and lay it on the seat and leave it at least overnight.* I've heard this works, but haven't encountered the problem for several years so don't know if it really works.* Bleach applied in the same manner is also supposed to work, but bleach will weaken the thread.* After treating it may take a few days for the pink to disappear.*
