Default Re: Bottom paint removal

A gallon of Soy Strip should do a 23', maybe you'll need an extra quart. If you use SoyStrip, or most anything else for that matter, you don't want to "brush" on/in. Just lay it up on the hull, fairly thickly, and let it do its job. Don't be in a rush to take it off, let it work 4 to 12 hours; it takes longer to break down bottom paint than it takes to break down house paint!!!

With SoyStrip, you'll want to cover it with plastic wrap or some other plastic sheeting product. (I'd use vapor barrier that I buy on a roll.) What you want to accomplish is to not let the product dry out while it is on the hull.

Follow the directions, beware of the lowest temperature likely to occur and follow the safety precautions. Good luck.

Be well.
