Runtoeat Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Floats, I use plain rubbing alcohol to remove fuel stains on my wings and to remove exhaust stains on the underneath. This has been very effective yet it does not seem to harm the exterior finish. If your surface is oxidized as Roger has indicated, not sure if the fuel has gotten into the paint and might cause a lasting stain? For your windows, Micro Mesh makes a polishing creme and also Meguiars makes a very fine polishing product which I use on the clear side windows and windshield called PlastX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 If we wipe off any fuel drool or minor stains right after they happen they usually come off. If the plane's paint is oxidized or the fuel sits on the plane for extended periods and never gets wiped of it tends to seep into the paint. I good wax may help keep future stains out. You can take oxidation off, but then it needs to be followed with a really good wax job and it will look good again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
