So I got the boat out of the garage last night to get it cleaned up for the weekend fun. We haven't been out this year due to a whole slew of issues, most notably an unusually cool spring.
While washing and wiping down the exterior, I noticed that I had some pretty significant water spotting from last season. This is only on the black trim section (might be on the white areas, as well but I can't see or feel it) that it's noticeable. I scrubbed pretty hard and they won't come off. Tried a Mr Clean Magic Eraser and that didn't get them off either.
Had a black Ford Ranger in High School that would water spot if it sprinkled 4 counties over. I got pretty decent at getting those water spots out by using a clay bar. Would usually attack that one twice a year in the spring and fall and it worked well. Really made the paint shine, and got rid of all kinds of water spots and other crud on the paint. Felt and looked like glass afterwards.
Can I use a Clay bar on the GelCoat for the same purpose? If not, what can I use to get these water spots off and get back to the nice glossy deep black I had before?
