Default 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?

just curious anything can be fabricated to work and how much X-tra room do you need & would a scoop work for more room . Soda blasting is safe but i do not know if i would go that far other then sanding the Imron off .

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?
