Taking out botton paint

[Jon G]

I think I will give the Dolphinite a try since its only a 20 footer and there arent' to many layers there. I will strip it sand it and then paint it(color change at the same time.) with some thing other that traditional bottom paint. Boat will be on a trailer so no anti fouling needed.

Thanks for the info. Looks like a messy job anyway you do it. the boats got a few coats on it but not as many as some older boats. The stripper looks like the way to go verus sanding it all off. I'll do it in the spring when I'm rarin' to go!

Very Good info, I heard about damage to the gelcoat also. When using the stripper how big an area do you cover at a time???? Thanx-craig

Miles Offshore,
I covered an area about 2 feet wide that ran from the keel outboard to the chine. Do the water line area separate so you can take your time there.

One more question, how much dolphinite do you need to do a 20'?
