Any chance that West Marine Stuff has a non marine, and thus cheaper and
available locally, equivalent? West Marine is a long way from Fargo, ND and
I wanted to do some cleaning over the holiday.

hey, I am addicted,and there is still no ice. Anybody ever fitted a potter
with an Ice Breaking bow?

I have used Acetone, and lacquer thinner in the past, but as Judy
mentions
they seem to remove a thin layer of the weathered vinyl, and also seemed

to discolor again rather soon, and the fumes from the more volatile
solvents
seem to get to me a little more than I like.. I liked the apparent
water solubility
and absence of fumes from the West Marine stuff.
