Title: Removing paint from GRP hull
Post by: jonathan_twite on 01 Oct 2015, 01:14
Time has come to repaint the inside of N2709, the paint has been slowly comming off for sometime, and I have now descovered that leaking epoxy hardener is a brilliant paint stripper...  Does anyone have any suggestions on the easiest method of removing paint from a fibre-glass hull (that is cheaper than a bucket-full of hardner....)?
 
Thanks

I used paint stripper on the interior of 2679...in hindsight I wish I hadnt bothered and would have just painted over what was there!
