202 Fiberglass Solvent Wash is a combination of several solvents, some of which are very slow to evaporate from the surface of gel coat being wiped. This characteristic is very important because the wax contaminants must stay in solution so that it can be wiped from the surface before it dries. 202 Solvent wash is also an excellent parts clean up and multi-purpose wipe down solvent.
Use before painting bare fiberglass gel coats. This solvent removes mold release agents, wax, oil, and grease. Leaves a properly cleaned surface for optimal paint adhesion. 202 Solvent is also used for cleaning painting tools.
Great stuff!

Pros:
Cleans vinyl too, Works as advertised
Best Uses:
Clean stained moldy vinyl, Remove wax from hull
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I was using this product to prep a hull for boot-stripe paint. The stern of my boat has a 3" thick vinyl rub-rail which had 10+ years of stain and mold that had resisted all vinyl cleaners I had tried. While removing wax from the hull, the solvent accidentally touched the vinyl and, voila, cleaned it back to white where it touched! I used it to restore the whole piece of vinyl to like-new condition in just a few minutes, and it did not leave the vinyl sticky. An unexpected bonus from a good product.
