As long as it's not near any gaskets or caulk type material, try some acetone, followed by a good rinse with regular soap and water....

Bar-Keepers-Friend in the scouring powder dept. of your local store. It contains a mild bleach, apply to a wet deck, work into a thin paste, let it work a bit, rince well! It will leave the deck dull where used, just rewax if needed. Good Stuff!

Zud will work too. It can be found in grocery stores with the kitchen cleaners. Bon Ami is also pretty good and a lot less abrasive.
