Macojoe, its not too bad of a job, until a big glob of stripper falls onto your eyelid. I ran into the house as fast as i could to wash it off. I literally ran into the house.
 Missed the entire f-in door! Goggles are a must, this crap burnt!Curapa, I bought the Kleen-Strip Aircraft Fiberglass Paint Remover. $29 for a gallon at West Marine. I think one gallon will do the V20. I have over half gallon left now. www.wmbarr.com/product.aspx?catid=82&prodid=113 Kracker, i will sand everything smooth then repaint. It will be either blue or black.

Kleen-strip is good stuff. Im using that stuff to strip my t-top. Anfd used it to strip my motocycle frame it works great. But burns sensitive areas!!! as you already know.

Nice job KJ! Ive got to do the same thing to mine, been putting it off. My V has at least four layers of antifoulant paint to remove. Not looking forward to doing it. What paint are you planning to go back with? Do you keep yours on the trailer or in the water?

Mine stays on the trailer. I have been researching paint for the bottom and so far i am leaning towards an epoxy paint. Like Sherwin Williams Tile Clad HS. I used it before and its very durable. I have also been researching possibly gel coating the entire outside of the hull. But i have a design i want to use but not sure how to do it.
