fiberglass is glass the only possible chemical that could "disolve" (because it won't, it will create a salt) is hydrofluoric acid (HF). However this chemical is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, it reacts with anything. Professional training is needed before handeling this chemical (lethal dose is 30 ppm)

A fluid substance at room temperature that will actually form a solution of silicon dioxide? Hmmm...
Hydroflouric acid, possibly? That might just result in a replacement reaction though...producing silicon tetraflouride and more water.
I wouldn't expect any organic solvent to affect fiberglass in any way.

What Ho Fisherman, i'm on a metallic boat, that's easy to color, yet a subject while it includes dragging it out for brand spanking new anodes, and a coat of bitumen goo pn its' backside. even although, a boatyard freind & neighbour has what we call a tupperware interest, ok, sorry, GRP, and used good previous T-cut back while changing the stickers. the total vessel now seems nice. No massive distinction between the older hull & the place the stickers have been. recommendations, i think of that he have been given by a pair of tins of it. i might for this reason say attempt T-cut back. looks to artwork nice. all the appropriate, fellow Boatie, basically dont get in front of me getting right into a lock. those loopy metallic jobs do no longer end too rapidly !

I don't think fiberglass will dissolve in anything. Different substncaes may react with it but not dissolve it.

I imagine that a polar, non-ionic solvent would work best. Perhaps acetone, or ligroin, or diethyl ether. These should work.

Sulphuric acid (So2). Damages fibreglass...will probably dissolve fg..not sure..try it out.
