I have found that where a very thin film of bottom paint residue is left, 800 grit wet paper takes right off.

Sounds like you did great! Remember barrior coat when putting the new stuff on.

You notice this stuff you only used a gallon or so? the home depot stuff you have to use 5 times as much because it is not specifically designed to break the adhesion chemical used in bottom paint like this stuff is. Just like Nutec was.
