Stripping Bottom Paint

[WiseGuy]

If you can pay someone, that's the way to go - it's a $hitty job to do for sure. Here's mine as I started at the bow, stripping and wiping down. I used the BIX in the orange can, as it stated OK for fiberglass - no ill effects. Would it hurt the gelcoat sitting on it over a long period of time? - I cannot say. Worked well for me and that's all I can attest to. Took the old boot stripe right off also. The hull will be stained from the previous paint still, but since you'll paint it no problem, or sand clean. This stuff worked FAR better than the WAY more expensive 'marine store' stripper.

Again, if you can get someone else to do it, so much the better. Might be some better pics in my gallery on pg5 (don't remember).
