HULL STAINS, HELP

I have what looks to be spotted stain on the
hull. I believe its from when they power washed my hull, this one particular area was splahed with the residue. I made an assumption that it would wash off in the spring. WRONG!!!!
I tried cleaner with a power buffer but it didn''t show any results.

Is there some chemial cleaner that can be used?

HULL STAINS, HELP

If you think the stain was caused by something oranic (alive) than a any of the hull cleaning products like On/Off, etc. would work. These cleaners are acids that mainly attack organic matter.

Try liquid automatic dishwashing soap such as "Cascade". I don''t know what''s in it, but it works great!
