Default Glue removal

Any idea on how to get the glue off that sticks to the boat after you remove stripes or graphics. Thanks JOHN

i used goo gone, also orange cleaner i cant remember the name but it worked and smelled good

also used a plastic razor blade and a real razor blade just becareful. Wax after you use the cleaners unless you are restriping....EZ-off oven cleaner works great on cars but I don't know what it would do to Gel-coat

The wheel won't burn the gel coat? Or at the very least, leave some type of marking?

I can't speak from experience, I have never used it. But here is a thread where they talk about how it works. I would bet if you spin it too fast it would melt the gel.

Just bought and used an eraser wheel on mine to remove decals. Takes glue and everything off. Wish it had been around years ago. Definately the route to go.
