This Admiral is not a fan of scrubbing the black stuff off fenders so here’s what I did. I washed them with Dawn, a green pad, and let them dry. Then I spray painted them with Fushion paint, the kind you would use to refurbish lawn furniture. Comes in a spray can from the hardware store for about $4.00. Comes in only a few colors. Our fenders are the kind where the line goes through so I hung them on the lifelines to dry after spraying them on newspaper on the dock. Roll around to get all sides. Came back in 24 hrs with a second coat. After al,ost 3 years they still look new but a little dirty. So the plan is to repaint them this year again. In my case it was either paint them or throw them away they were so bad. This paint covers well the black tarry stuff from the docks. It was a miracle. Our neighbor sprayed hers navy and they look great after 2 years. Every once in a while we need something easy. This is it.
