    You can try to use phosphoric acid (rust remover), diluted by 10% with water. Make sure to wear gloves, and rinse the acid away as soon as possible to prevent damage to the fiberglass.

    Yes, but make sure to be careful to not use any scouring or hard wire brushes when cleaning, as it can damage the gel coating.

    I have two sets of Fiberglass outdoor steps at my double wide mobile home. I have rubber treads on each step, as they are a rough surface. Dirt has gotten under the treads and it will not wash off with my water hose. What can I use to clean under the treads?
    Community Answer
    Try using white vinegar and let it soak for 30 minutes or so, then try using hot water to rinse.

    How do I remove moss from the outside of a fiberglass oil tank?
    Community Answer
    Use hot water. Don't scrub, as it will most likely damage the glass or plastic you are using.
