 |
|
The previous owner pulled the boat with a diesel pick up and didn't clean it very often.
Any tips for removing to residue from the hull? I tried a little spot with polishing compound without any luck. |

Try sno-bowl the toilet bowl cleaner. Be sure to clean that area real well after and apply more wax.

2nd the toilet bowl cleaner. make sure you wear gloves and don't get any on the bunks where your carpet is. That should take everything off.

Finally got it off. Tried bathroom cleaner, The Works toilet bowl cleaner(couldn't find Sno-Bowl), Quick-N-Brite, dish soap, car wash soap, and hull cleaner.
The only thing that I was able to get it off with was Easy Off oven cleaner and a magic eraser. Lots of elbow grease, and followed up with a good wash and wax.
I was a little nervous about how the stuff would react with the fiberglass and gelcoat, but no issues. Looks great. |
