Done my share of paint stripping and I think I might have a hint to help speed up the process. After applying your 'decal lifter' paste cover it with plastic/Seran wrap to keep the paste from drying too fast. Works well with paint strippers.

Hey Guys, Following your method, we removed our worn old graphics. But we have very bad shadows left behind from old stickers being baked on for so long by the sun as you did. You mentioned you had some products on order to remove the shadows or dwell lines. Have you gotten your products in and have you tried them. Can you mentioned what you ordered to remove the shadows. Also if you are using new graphics, where did you order them.. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

We ended up wet sanding it with an orbital sander, starting with a 800 grit and then working up to a 1500 grit. We followed techniques used for restoring the gel coat on boat hulls. It took the worst of the oxidation off but it didn't remove all of it. You could still see slight shadowing but we decided it looked good enough and left it bare. I hope that helps! I didn't get enough footage to do a video of it!

@TheFlippinTilbys

4 ай бұрын

It would probably work! A paintbrush would allow for a thicker application, but otherwise, I would imagine it would work similarly!

When I removed vinyl from my car mineral spirits worked on most of the glue. I would only use it for that and never use it on the paint for anything else. It might cause damage if used too many times but it is not as harsh as acetone. Acetone might just instantly dissolve the paint! I know it is tricky because you want something that works but won't destroy the paint under the glue.

great job!!! imo it is best just to leave the skin clean of any further decals.... now get that camo hat a fish hook on it already, this will complete your project!!! 🤠

I'll check it out! The ghosting on this rig bled into the fiberglass so topical solutions didn't work, I ended up wet sanding it with favorable results

Since one bottle is seldom enough, buy two or three(yes$$) use roller(4") and it's super fast and in the big picture it is not as much work as trying to stretch out the dissolving solution. Another big plus is it comes off so much easier if you just soak the graphics the FIRST time. Time vs $$ I do it while I am fishing, seems like multitasking helps the fish bite.
