Does anyone know what product might remove this kind of stain?

Thanks , Jerry.

Jerry, give me a call and I will pull something special off the shelf that will help if you already didn't go experimenting too much and setting the stain.
Call me and I'll send you some complimentry magic potion.

Re: Anyone have this happen?

I have had great luck with WD-40 - takes out anything and doesn't seem to hurt the vinyl.

Re: Anyone have this happen?

Acetone and lacquer thinner are big no-no's!
Those two will damage the vinyl. And if your boat has lexan windshields and some drips on it the lexan will be permanently damaged.
I don't think mineral spirirts or WD-40 will hurt. Try them on a small spot first.
