Does Anyone Know How To Remove A Minor Varnish Stain From The Non Skid Gel Coat Of A Beneteau Sailboat?
the stain(s) are not thick, it looks like a thin film of varnish on the non skid. I have already tried acetone, but to no avail. I’d appreciate any helpful response. Thanks.

Scrape(put a cloth over a 5-in-one tool) (the method of using a dull tool to gently lift off excess solid or caked-on stains) to remove excess. Apply a dry spotter to the stain and cover with an absorbent pad moistened with dry spotter. Let it stand as long as any stain is being removed. Keep the pad and stain moist. Flush (the method of applying stain remover to loosen staining material and residue from stain removers) with a dry-cleaning solvent and allow to dry.

Is the non-skid part of the deck (textured) or a press on like tape?
Have you tried on-off by mary kate?
You could roll the dice with muriatic acid but have plenty of water available. It will not hurt your gel finish beyond having to wax it. Keep it away from bedding materials and aluminum fittings.

you could try Jiff & a strong rag. It is mildly abrasive so dont rub too hard at first. It also has a solvent action & will remove most stains with care.
