Cleaning your "skirt"

Wondering how to clean the skirt of my Montana this is the area below the molding line, it has a pebble grain finish to it.I'm
trying to get rid of the black streaks.

I use Greased Lightning for all my black streak removal including the skirt. It also works great on the roof and for getting bugs off the front cap. Tried Awesome but find Greased Lightning to be a bit better. You can buy it at Wal*Mart, Sams Club, Home Depot or Lowes.

I used Gel-Gloss, but had to scrub. Sure looks nice.

I've used Simple Green...works great on black streaks and bugs. Also, it doesn't seem to remove the wax.

We have used the Marine Fiberglass Cleaner/Wax from Wally World for several years. It is labor intensive but cleans very well (dead bugs, road tar, streaks, etc.). The wax finish is very durable since it is made for those expensive holes in the water. My little TT has the same outer material as the Monties.
