So, anyone have a tip for cleaning the non-skid fiberglass? Specifcally the swim step. I have a couple of dark areas that I think are foot prints that I can't get off. I've tried basic soap and a rag, nylon bristle brush and soap, nylong brush and diluted Soft Scrub (not on any upholstery) which seemed to do the best. I haven't gone to any type of abrasive cleaner like Comet. THought about using something like Zud or Barkeeper's Friend, but didn't go there.
I've gotten them to just some darker spots and not a footprint anymore.
Yes, I was the dumb guy who stepped on the gelcoat when winterizing last year.

Hull cleaner and a brush. Toilet bowl cleaner and a brush.

I’ll agree with BBP about the hull cleaner. Wipe on and hose off. That easy. Sorry but I didn’t get the pictures and measurements for you today but since will!
