Hey, Jason! Happy New Year.

If you have any Frenzy! Shark Tower left, buff the hull with it. You'll be amazed at the results you'll get from one step. Call me if you have any questions.

Can "shark tower" from waxing frenzy be used to remove tree stains from gel coat and paint?

Waxing Frenzy! will remove tree sap (and other droppings). You will want to put it on the area, work it in a bit with a terri towel and let it sit for about 5 minutes before wiping.

If you have Shark Tower already, it will also do the job.

Once you have a coat of Waxing Frenzy! on your boat, it will make sap removal much easier.

Try SeaPower cleaner wax, boatersworld has it for like $7.99. It really works wonders, and is great for a novice. I used it on my heavily oxidized boat, and it brought it back from the dead.

did not have time to read the whole thread but just so ya know Donzi has both paint and gel surfaces. in other words they paint the hull of the boat up to the rubrail including the graphics. they also paint the center raised section of the deck and the sides of the above the rubrail from the fairing back but blend the forward part off into the gel just ahead of the fairing. they leave the sides of the deck in gel.

thanks for the info Dave! I guess I don't know what the he!! I'm doing so I think I'll take it to a pro and let them get er' done. I was going to buy a nice rotary polisher, and try to tackle it myself, but I don't know what products to buy, and I also understand that a rotary buffer can be a little tricky for a beginner.

What is interesting is most of the streaking appears to be in front of the fairing where maybe the oxidization of the white gel on the topdeck could've been washing down onto the blue and staining it that way??? I don't know if that changes anything or not, just another idea.

If you are saying that the most amount of "oxidation" is right behind the faring on the sides then I would venture that this is the last place to dry after washing the boat hence all residues accumulated on the deck run down on the same area after rain, heavy dew, washing and is a buildup more than anything else. The flat of the deck will oxidize the most because of time in UV is the most.
