Great work so far! How did you get off your bottom paint? I have a scara 22 that someone put bottom paint on. It almost damn near chips off. It will just talk me for ever to scrape it. I have had many many boats and this does not seem like regular antifauling bottom paint. It looks and feels like truck bedliner...
How can I get it off with out having to scar up my bottom. Do think if I spray Jasco paint remover on it it will help speed up my project? Whats you take?

Just looking to make it a little different then the average Monza (if there is such a thing).
Bottom paint, I hate it with a passion. This boat sat in the water, got barnacles on it, someone just scraped them off and painted over them and if that was not bad enough it happened again and even 3rd time. There is no way to get off paint like that but a 36 grit 8" disk grinder and a ton of sanding. Then fix all the f_ ups.
I figure there was almost a 1/4" of paint that had to be removed.
