Default Reclearing a boat.

What is the process and if any chemicals used to strip clear off a boat.The boat has paint not gel on it.don't know what it is except PPG products.Seen razor blades used to strip clear before but you gotta know what your doing.

Why do you need to strip the clear?

do you plan on repainting? yes razor blades can do some damage in not done properly. one way to minimize risk is to dull the corners of the blade with a piece of fine sandpaper. actually it is sometimes good to dull the whole blade a bit. the paint has to be just right for it to work.

Up date on reclearing.Talked with the owner of the shop and he gave me a new nickname and said he doesn't want to ever see me in he's shop again.By the way my new name is *OTHER*UCKER and i know this cause he said it several times.Sound like a very good business man doesn't.Boats has been in he's shop 5 times and this is the third time being cleared.I've talked to a few other boat owners that he painted and sounds like my boat isn't the first one he did with problems.I just hope its right this time for everybody sake.You would think he'd want it right this time since our relationship has grown so well.Told boat can be picked up on the 14 of this month.we'll see.
