Default Foam Killer?

Acetone will clean fiberglass nicely and remove it from objects BEFORE it is
cured. I've used alot of it in my lifetime for cleaning fiberglass transoms.
No problem. Evaporates kinda quick though.

Won't acetone eat away at the underlying fibreglass?

Try Gasoline first because it is the cheapest, I know it will dissolve
polystyrene such as used in housing insulation and buoys.

Anyone know a way to disolve/destroy old wet foam?
I started using a shovel to remove it and that did OK for the bulk,

but
it would be nice to figure a way to disolve the rest and wash or

shovel
it out. Of coarse I'd like to do it w/o hurting the fiberglass

bottom.
any ideas? I can experiment on chunks I've shoveled if there's
something to try - (gasoline?)
