It's all gone
 

$ 27.00 worth of sandpaper, countless hours, and god know how much of an electric bill, having no more ratty looking black antifouling paint on the bottom=PRICELESS :kewl:

You da Man! now you can come over & paint mine! :bl:

Sure thing but you'll be spending all next winter making me plugs :D

Is that you that i've been seeing every day on your back with a dust mask on sanding away?

We could work something out!!!

Now you'll get a free slip :D Nice and shiney, good job.

Aquaman seeing how I am the only SICK SOB to actually do this I would have to say yah you have been seeing me ;) No slip for me nothing good can come from a daily salt bath

Can't wait to see it with the cover off :kewl:

Pretty soon, have to get the paint off the underneath of the eurotransom before I take the cover off, that dust gets everywhere I was under there yesterday putting my new radio/electronics setup and there was paint dust all over the floor.

did you do the hole thing with sand paper?? or did you use striper of some kind first??
I want to do this to my boat but not sure how to go about it?

Great Job!!

Maco for a small fee I could oversee the project :grins: All kidding aside I was too impatient to go the route of the stripper, temps have to be around 65 and the crap is messy!! I have used it on the sides and back I would rate the stripper a 5 out of 10. I used a DA and 80 grit paper, most likely whoever prepped the boat for paint used 80 grit so just take it down too the gel, I have one side of my boat that could have been restored back to it's original luster but on the other side some jack@ss used a grinder and 40 grit so I have a 2 part epoxy paint matched to my gel coat that last 10 years I will be putting on. You should have chimed in earlier I would have been glad to barter labor with ya.
