[QUOTE="jvanhees, post: 309017, member: 11205"] Well been tearing into the hull a bit this week. Removing leaking rivets, prepping weld areas for the welder, and trying to clean off the rest of the hull for primer/steelflex eventually...but having a hard time. Been using heat, grinder/wirebrush, scrapers, acetone and none are working to well. Thinking of trying a stripper next. I want it to be all bare aluminum before I put anything down....[ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1365182826.327746.jpg"]50298._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1365182834.393346.jpg"]50299._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1365182845.127342.jpg"]50300._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1365182855.793786.jpg"]50301._xfImport[/ATTACH] Whatever epoxy stuff was used all over the boat is a bear to get off...
