Starbrite hull cleaner or dawn dish liquid. When you get the stains
off,
put a couple of coats of boat wax on the area that "attracts" the
stains.

the marina clued me in to 'FSR"...fiberglass stain remover...not sure
if it'll work but I'll let yo uknow


I've used FSR. If memory serves, it is mostly oxalic acid. Wear gloves
and eye protection. It stings like the devil if it gets into small cuts.

You've got a problem.

I had to deal with this once, due to fuel expansion, and it was a bitch.
Then ONLY way I could get the stuff off was using a professional grade
compound. Fortunately, they build and repair boats where I dry store and
they just gave me a small quantity. I think it only comes in the gallon size
and that is pretty pricey.

It is a VERY aggressive compound, so be careful. I used a real power buffer
to accomplish the job, so if you try to use a higher speed wheel, be VERY
careful of burning the gelcoat. Actually, this stuff cuts fast enough to use
by hand.

Not sure what you have, but I had to touch up the bottom paint, too.

i'll give the fiberglass stain remover a chance...even if it lightens
it a bit it should be OK

thank smuch

You will never see it.

Taht's always the problem I'[ve had with my v huls. the tank cap is in
front of the drivers windshield, and so is the vent. fueling them is a
pain because the pump[ is pumping then if not careful to shut the pump
down before the filler neck is full, the pump handle makes a smard
*click!* as the gasolinee comes puking back out of the top. OK so now
it's full, but every jossle and gas comes dribbling out of the tank
vent.

i got to the point where I'd wash it as fast as I could with
windshield washer and a wet cloth, but eventually I gave up trying to
get rid of the stain every time I slopped gas on the hull. . But I'll
detail them when I moth ball them for the winter. *Bon-ami doesnt't do
bad but really dulls the finish, so It'll get a good scrubbing then a
wax job, and I doubt it will look good -as- new, but it'll be better'n
what it was.

Taht's always the problem I'[ve had with my v huls. the tank cap
is in front of the drivers windshield,

Funny, mine isn't, and its a severe V Hull. Better design I guess.
