Anyone know how to get rid of the yellow discoloration in the nonskid from fuel that had leaked from portable tank onto cockpit floor? I allready tried various cleaners and MK's On&Off without success. I welcome anyone's advice. Thanks.
 
unfortunately, it soaks in good and doesnt come out easily. best bet without ruining the gelcoat anymore would be to let the sun do its job. it will fade it in time (or should anyway)
 
Try Davis' Fiberglass Stain Remover (FSR). It has worked wonders for us in removing even rust stains from gelcoat! Follow the instructions and be amazed.
 
Last April, I used MK On&Off, Davis FSR, bleach and 3M Finesse-it to no avail. It finally faded out around September.
 
When diesel fuel starts turning the area around my fuel fills yellow I know its time to strip off the wax in that area and re-wax. Has worked every time. Not sure if this will help with your non-skid area thou.
