Thanks Destroyer. Will do. And trust me, I work in the aerospace industry and wear safety glasses 10 hours a day. It is kind of second nature now for anything I do in the garage or outside the house. We can't replace our eyes!!

Oh, O.K. You said aerospace and I thought you might be around Savannah at Gulfstream.

That aviation paint stripper is really amazing. Put on one coat, pressure washed, put on another coat, pressure washed....bottom paint gone. Started at 5:42, done at 7:19

Glad it worked! I might get another gallon of aviation stripper and rent a pressure washer this weekend.

Sounds like this months site project is stripping bottom paint. I have my hull flipped over and it is still a real *****. I've gone through (50) 80 grit disks and now up to (10) 50 grit and still am not half-way done after around 8 hours.

I couldn't imagine doing this work on my back.

I'll be making my way to West Marine this week and Neff shortly thereafter.
