Hello everyone,

I stored my boat over the winter in a shed with a cover on it. A portion of the bow and swim deck were still exposed and covered in bird poop. I got everything cleaned up nice but small brown specks remain and I have been unable to get them off. Is there a product anyone would recommend for this problem?

Thanks in advance.

I was hoping to avoid compound and buffing but that may end up being my only option. Thank you

Actually tried the magic eraser and it dulled the gel coat. Made me pretty nervous but have cleaned and waxed twice. Most people wouldn't be able to notice now. I will..

Starbright hull cleaner is pretty good.

It will remove wax as well so keep that in mind.
