So what's a guy like me supposed to use when my fiberglass/gelcoat Baja sits on a trailer when not being used? Granted, I have less scum line and scale to deal with since it's not in the water all season but after reading about cleaning with various acid products, it still needs cleaning and I'm afraid to damage anything.

I've done a little Google searching and I've found StarBrite Hull Cleaner, Slimy Grimy and something known as FSR (fiberglass stain remover?) as possible cleaners. I also found people talking about using a 1:1 mix of vinegar and water but I'm thinking that's more for hard water deposits than scum line cleaning.

Thoughts or suggestions?
