Pressure washer on fibreglass boat
Submitted by joycey on Tue, 2013-10-08 20:12
Hi guys,
Recently bought a pressure washer (1800psi ).
Is it ok to wash my fibreglass boat with it or could it be harmful to gelcoat.
Cheers for advice,
Joycey

Acetone
Always used to use acetone to clean and detail, depends if you can get your hands on quantity and whether this is for a regular clean or a detail.
Just avoid stickers, etc :-p

Your not wrong about stickers
I made a big mistake with a karcher, I thought I was standing back far enough that the pressure would not be too severe for the paint and stickers, aaarrh wrong lifted the quinine stickers straight off big big mistake
