Bottom Paint

[macojoe]

I have about 10 layers of paint!! :-/ No i really have no idea? I can tell you there is at least 2 coats of blue and I have added 2 coats of black since I have owned the boat.

I have wanted to strip it all off for years! But I am to scared od the amount of work, so I just add as i go.

I have heard that the chisel is a good way to go at it. But it must be sharp and you have to be careful of digging the gel coat.

Its going to happen!! nothing you can do about it! What is your plan? going to try to keep it white in the end or just trying to get it all the way down for a new coat?

If you going to recoat it then get it down as far as you can, fix gel coat with filler and repaint, if your going to try to strip all the way, then get as much off as you can and then go with a chemical for the last part.

I here Home Depot has stuff called BIX and I hear it does a great job of striping?
