OK,,its called "rust free" and made by/for boeing corp... and have used on gel coat with good results....hope that helps !! Funny thing over the years have had to explain to boat owners about rust,galvanic corrosion and a host of things not known to the average joe !! most guys assume about boats.......K&T:cool:.....PS the word electrolysis is often used around boats,,But that is not the case !! very,very seldom do I see electrolysis on boats !!!! PPS Forgot 1 more./..Crevice corrosion !! and that is not raw fish cooked wth lime juice !!!...................

Now that is the first intelligent comment I have read in this thread.

Dave, FSR is the bomb on gel coat. Next time I see you I'll explain.

heres a little secret i got from a fellow commercial fisherman. its called , the works and its a toilet bowl cleaner. put it in a spray bottle and spray it on for 30 seconds and then wipe off. it works like magic and best of all its at the dollar store for 1 buck. it does not hurt the gel coat.
