Default Re: My 'new' 82 pic's

The stripper for bottom paint that worked the best is called 'Bix'. They have several varieties - I got the spray on (comes with a spray bottle) - this one is in an orange can and specifically says approved for fiberglass on the front. Worked VERY well - let it sit maybe 15-20 and paint melted. Any stickers and there gone too. MUCH better than the stuff I started with. Might be something like $15 for a gallon at HD. Unless you'll paint again with anti fouling, sanding is still needed to get white, but not bad at all after 98% of that paint is gone. Another product recommendation (again from HD) is 'Krud Kutter' - cleans like crazy.

North Coast - south shore of Lake Erie.

Spraying - primer tommorrow

Thanks
