Glassdave question?

Do you make cutouts for engine hatches or do I need to have a complete hatch made to get more room under there?

Also Is there a way to remove Imorn paint (soda blastind or aircraft paint remover) without damaging the gelcoat underneath?

not sure what you mean by cut outs? what are you trying to get more clearance for?

Imron is tough to remove i usually have to sand it off. Are you repainting or just looking to remove the stripe?

Looking to remove the stripe without repainting the entire boat.

I was told that someone makes a hatch cutout (like scoops) but more of a raised hatch look to fit blowers under the hatch.

measure the dimension of the hatch I may have something.


Its tough to get a stripe like that off and be able to save the gel. How bout a color change?
