3M makes blue Scotch Brite that is not abrasive like the common green pads.
It won’t scratch Teflon frying pans or fiberglass tubs. They are available on amazon.
They are also available with a light blue foam handle.
Google images bar code 5114191313. What you see in the Google image photo is the foam handle.
The blue scotch brite is hard to find, yet well worth it.
 
I like magic erasers which I learned about on one of the episodes of, “as the prop turns”.
 
I got the tip on magic erasers directly from someone who works for the factory. They have worked great for me. But I use them knowing that they strip off any wax from the fiberglass and leave it more vulnerable to UV and other degenerative forces. So use magic erasers sparingly and consider waxing once the area is clean.

Magic erasers are abrasive and will not only take off the wax but will dull the fiberglass finish. I remember reading that they are equivalent to 3000 grit sandpaper. Here's a nice link about the things you should not do with a magic eraser...
