Default Re: Cleaning of stains...Please Help

I had one side of mine the gel-coat had mildew or something was turning black in spots. I had a hell of a time trying to scrub the spots off, I finally got P.O.ed and went to Sears and bought a Milwalkee 11 amp polisher and got some Star-brite medium cut rubbing compound and did the hull below the rub rail it removed the spots and oxidation and fine scratches from the gel coat. I waxed it with Collonite wax and now I see the reflection from the next door neighbors house from 50 feet away it looks like new. I nearly repainted the hull *when we did the top side ........now I'm glad we didn't.....
