I can tell you from first hand experience, you don't HAVE to do anything, it will fade completely and disappear, and it takes less time than you think. But, I understand wanting to be proactive as well, I'm kind of OCD like that.

This, it will disappear, never use it if it isn't held over something you don't mind get hit.

I think they make a remover for this stuff. I spilled a bottle in a crappie barge when I first started using it. Smelled like Mama Luigi's pizza parlor in no time.

Sell the boat! Actually as there's have said time in the sun will fade pretty fast. It's happened to me a couple times!

Yeah, the garlic smell is a bit much. Im going to put some elbow grease into it here in a bit. Hopefully I can get some of it off and then let the sun take care of the rest. I guess Ill just have to get it out of the garage and on the lake more often!

I spilled some in my last boat. It landed in two spots. I scrubbed and scrubbed and used acetone on one spot and it faded a little. A year later you could not see the spot I left alone but you could still see where I had scrubbed a couple of years later when I sold the boat.

The chartreuse will fade a lot quicker than the dark colors. Don't ask me how I know.

Don't worry about it just go fishing. The more you use the boat and it is exposed to the sun it will fade away.

Rubbing alcohol and a magic eraser got most of it off the gel coat. The carpet needs some sun, nothing did much for the carpet. All good info above, I think a couple trips when the sun actually shines is all I need to get rid of whats left.

I was told the Mr. Clean magic eraser works on gelcoat. I'd be very cautious with that. Those magic erasers are amazing, but would probably scratch the dickens out of a gelcoat. Maybe try an inconspicuous spot at the bottom of the hull to see if it leave a haze.
