Other solvents to try: WD-40 and lighter fluid.
My dad used to use lighter fluid to remove all kinds of gunk - especially pine sap from our clothing.

The drill attached erasers work good but if you are going to do quite a bit of it I would suggest
I used it to sand down a whole vehicle before painting and it never died.
I was using this as an applicator but I was doing it to remove it down to steel.
Honestly before doing anything I would hit it with a aggressive buffing compound. As an example
But you may be surprised what a solid buffing compound can do and it could bring it back to white.

In the same vein as mechanical as someone who is also trying out this lifestyle I would suggest also checking/replacing
House electrical Battery bank
Fresh water pump is a critical system
Generator it needs to be reliable and you may need spare parts (I am doing an oil change approx weekly on mine)
AC/Heat let me tell you as someone who spent yesterday baking without power and tonight running on half system keeping a comfortable system is key.
Replace every hose if it looks suspect especially black water hoses.
If your going to be boondocking black water system is a critical system.
Finally if you need any advice on internet let me know I am about 2 months in on research and 1 week into execution of trying 4 distinct cellular plans but if you are intending to WFH I can hook you up with knowledge on how to do it.
Edit if you do paint check out some of the cool science in the space.

Thanks everyone!
We had our first major setback yesterday.
Something about very cold rain takes frustration up a notch. Hopefully we will sail this beast properly soon.
