John,

Suggest you try Goo Gone before anything else. It's amazing what that stuff
will soften. Follow with some fiberglass polish and a buffer.

Good luck.

Now that's an offer. You previously offered to take JohnH out on your

this.

Good old kerosene would probably work also....it will also strip the wax so
you would have to touch it up afterwards.

I wonder if mineral spirits would work, without messing up the gel coat?

I would not think mineral spirits or kerosene would mess up the gelcoat. If
you get into something with a high solvent content like acetone it would
definitely soften up the gelcoat.

Well, maybe this won't be as much work as I feared. If I can spray and wipe with
the mineral spirits, that would be much easier than breaking out the
buffer/polisher.

Heck WD40 might also work.
