Default Gas stains
Anyone know how to get rid of the yellow gas stain from an overflow on a painted surface. I tried most soaps with no luck.

You try polish, wax, and elbow grease? Additional cleaners may take off additional paint....

FSR is good stuff and will remove stains in the paint or gelcoat.

tried FSR and it does not remove the stain either. Guess the sun and some voodoo mix might work.
