Default {Bottom Paint} 99% Done

Started to strip the bottom paint *and the hull has deep sand marks in the gel-coat so........it's going to get a fresh coat of Petit Vivid bottom paint in off white. We got the boat off the trailer in about 45 minutes on to poppits and going to sand the paint smooth and power wash and then paint. The first pic you can see where i started to strip the paint and stopped there......... * *

Dirty is not close to what he was, even his hair was bright blue, the paint was so chalky it just about fell off......
