Home Depo has stuff called Bix, that I hear is very good?

I have also hear (all bad) about a tape you put on and peel off later.

Then there are those that just us a sharp scraper and scrape it off, being careful not to cut into the gelcoat.

There is no real easy way to do it!! Its eaither goining to be a time consuming job for you, or you are going to pay someone to do it.

If you don't count your time for much then its cheaper to do yourself.

I sold my boat so I would not have to do it The new boat I bought was alreay done for me.

Eaither way get her done!!

Ross my 2 cents -
i had tried to remove bottom paint on one of my boats, tried peel away, bix and 2 other products. None got my satisfaction. Also was showing to be a very time consuming and messy job. Gave up and stayed with the bottom paint.
Also found that the paint removers were softening the gel coat.
I would look at other methods.
