    Whats the best product for cleaning white fiberglass on your boat?

    Well, the boat I just bought is pretty dirty and has alot of black marks on the white areas of the boat. What do you guys recommend for cleaning it? A fine rubbing compound?

    Acetone will take most all rub marks off gelcoat, including bow roller marks.
    Cleans just about anything off the hull, will remove all the wax also, so be sure to rewax when done cleaning.
    Don't use on any plastic parts on the console, it may react with some of the plastics.

    Does this work well for the top edge of the boat also? Seems like alot of black marks from baits and shoes.

    yes...acetone will clean most marks off gel...just do not use it on the plastic parts of the console, gauge faces or windshields.
