Paint removers. The friendly type

[Ken13531]

A couple of months ago I read a piece of research that someone had done on paint removers used to take their bottom coat off. I remember that the one that proved out the best was the enviro friendly type.Can someone provide me with a link to the research data. It was really helpful.My search of the archives did not show it.ThanksKen

Looks like you should...

look into the back issues of "Practical Sailor". I wouldn't go the "more green" route. It is a nasty job... get the product that gets the job done... WITHOUT eating thru the gel-coat. Must be specific for fibergalss!

Be careful if you use the potent stuff

When I striped my mast last year I used some great stuff that I got in my local hardware store. I used it on aluminum and it was recommended for all kinds of paint including urethanes and epoxies, but it had a specific caution to not use it on plastics or fiberglass. So be careful.
