Default creosote on fiberglass

Anyone know a way to remove creosote from a fiberglass boat. Tried bug & tar remover, fingernail polish remover and can't get it off.

gotta use a solvent, try orange goop or orange oil, not the degreaser, which might work, but the orange oil should break it down with out messing up your gel coat.
