Paint removal

Why can't you use acetone, then rewax?

I used lacquer thinner on the Shark tonight. *It does work with a little elbow grease. *After I get both sides cleaned of the paint I'll rub it out and wax. *Bill Mc ;D

Great! Did it leave a stain?? Might be able to buff it out?

I have not removed the entire shark yet. It does not appear to be stained but sort of like what other people have said they get when they remove letters. I won't be back to the boat til after Easter. I finish the job, post pictures and let you know about the whole experience. Bill Mc

Is there any reason that you can not use acetone? ???

Acetone will work but it evaporates too quick. Bill Mc

I got both Sharks removed today. *I tried acetone but it was too quick. *I used lacquer thinner and a pot scrubber. *There was no staining. *It looks just like when you remove lettering.
