Boot Stripe
 

Hey Mulv.
The wife wouldnt give up her hair dryer. Think she knew it wouldnt come back or come back with black paint all over it. Used the heat gun. Stripes came off well. Just alot of glue now to remove. tried using goof off, byt that didnt work. Will try what you said, acitone.

Yea....nice job hammer....I kinda like the look without the bootstripe and painted bottom.

Thanks Brothers.
Off to the boat now to get the glue off from the boot striping. Install bim top, deck drains.
Looks like I wont be going with a hard top. Price changed and is out of my price. Will be having a local guy enclose all 4 sides of the bim in June I figure.

Hammer, Mulv is right. Acetone is the ticket for getting that stuff off quick and easy...

Re: Boot Stripe
 

tried the acetone and wasnt working. Used the other stuff of goo off, well, it removes tar, glue....and FREAKIN bottom Paint. The run off took off my bottom paint. Man, I just cant get ahead. !!.
Will lightly sand the sides friday and repaint. I am not RESANDING THE BOAT !!.

P.S. Working out details today on my shark/ a.k.a. Flying tigars mouth. She will be hopefully looking pretty mouthy come next week I hope. ;D

Skools,
The boot stripes were waisted big time. Torn up and pealing in spots. Also had a older set under top set.
I can feel a thin lip where the bottom paint stops and meets the gelcoat. Dont like it. Hopefully I can smooth the edge out with the sander, but wondering when I sand, will the color fade ??
