Gang,

MY POTTER IS CLEAN. It has never really been clean since I
bought it used, but something yukky (black spots) was all over
the deck and cockpit and on part of the topsides.

Used On & Off to remove most (95%)of waterline marking.
Scrubbed the rest with car soap and Scotchbrite type pads (not
very abrasive, and hardly so at all when wet). It really came
clean.

Then used Teflon Polish on the topsides. Is Teflon Polish okay
for the deck and cockpit OR IS IT SLIPPERY? Don't need to
slip and break anything.

Haven't decided what to use on bottom, probably a wax. I
don't want to use bottom paint as if it is in the water for
long it will be fresh water and probably not more than 60 days
at most. Anyone got any suggestions?
