Bore water marks on my fibreglass boat
Submitted by Dirt on Fri, 2017-05-12 17:06
hey guys just brought a lovely new house with beautiful gardens thanks to our bore. Unfortunately after last weekend I left the cover off the boat until the carpet dries. My whole boat is basically now covered in borewater marks/stains. Anyone ever had this happen or know how to get it off. Seems pretty well stuck

diluted oxalic acid works a treat, but you will need to polish it. Ive got an old fibreglass boat and it works too good. Not sure about using on a new boat tho.

Starbrite instant hull
Starbrite instant hull cleaner. Can get from Whitworths or any of the Bargain Boat Bit shops. Do a youtube search on the results. I used it to clean the scum lines on my swimming pool that nothing else would touch, worked a treat.
