Leaf stains
Scrubbing the crap out of them with Soft Scrub w/ bleach doesn't work, any other suggestions?

Re: Leaf stains
West Marine sells a liquid gel called Fiberglass Stain Remover. It has acid in it, so use rubber gloves. Wipe it on, let it sit a minute and rinse off thoroughly with water. It'll take the wax off, too, so you'll have to re-apply if it's a waxed area.
The other option is compound, but that's very labor intensive and difficult on non-skid.

If it is just a few try a MR Clean Magic Eraser. Those things do wonders!
The more I know about something, the more I know that I did not know as much as I thought I knew that I knew.

bleach/water, bug sprayer, let sit for 1 minute, rinse very well.

Option 1. Build an enclosed shelter to put the boat
Option 2. Buy a cover to put on the boat
Option 3. Call Tom and let him take care of them.

The Al Gore internet is only large enough for one smart ass and I was here first. It is bad enough with everyone fishing my holes. Now they are taking over my oneliners.cueball wrote:Are the leaf stains on your fingers?
WHOSE FISH IS IT?
Re: Leaf stains
Use Acetone with rag, wipe on wipe off. May have to scrub a little but will clean almost anything off your boat.
Re: Leaf stains
I use toilet bowl cleaner. It's cheap and takes off rust or any other stains you have. Just rinse well and throw a little wax on it and your good to go.
