HELP- Cleaning Buoy Rubber Marks from Hull

Cvj 30 May 2005 22:18:06
 Just returned from a one week to the San Juan Islands, where we moored at
various WA State buoys. These are basically designed with with a black
rubber tire around the flotation part - in order to "protect" the hull from
impact/bumping damage. In some cases the tire has been painted yellow for
higher visibility (I guess).

Unfortunately, the nice shine finish on our boat now has been dulled where
the tire hit the boat repeatedly during a windy night - and additionally,
some black rubber and yellow paint has been "pounded" into the gelcoat.

My question is, what product or products are recommended for cleaning and
polishing the gelcoat to get a nice shiny finish back??? I have tried a 3M
product "Clean & Shine" spray application - but it did not do the job.

Appreciate any feedback.

Thanks
Claus

Try the "3M Marine Fiberglass Restore and Wax" instead. Requires a bit of
elbow grease-tried it with a buffing wheel, didn't have much luck, but for a
small area it shouldn't be that much work. It is essentially a rubbing
compound with a wax. There are any number of similar products made by
different mfgs. that will probably work as well as the 3M.
