I stripped the bottom of Scotch Bonnet last year, which I think was the first time in 25 years.  The bulk of it I did with Peel Away that a friend had from when he stripped his bottom 5 years ago.  This worked great with very little mess on the ground but I didn't have enough to finish the bottom.  When I tried to find more, I used the environmentally friendly type which I think made it worse.  I tried several other types of chemical stripper with no luck.  I saw a Practical Sailor article that evaluated chemical strippers and recommended a soy based product from Franmar.  It worked great!

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering whether anyone has any experience or knowledge of building a new 
udder.? The rudder off #231 is going into Blackline Marine in Sidney this week 
o see whether it can be straightened however I'd like to compare the job to 
uilding another ie level of difficulty, cost etc.?? 
I can see a few have been built by listers before but I was unable to see what 
he outcomes were.? ie did the rudder perform as expected etc.
Michael thanks for your comment.? The rudder blade is bent far enough that I 
annot compensate for it by changing the position of the post etc.? though I? 
ave tried several times.
Thanks
Mick

 George,
 Are you near a marina with a high pressure wash down system? Usually you 
 can get rid of a lot of bottom paint by high pressure wash down. Scraping 
 the flaky stuff works, then afterwards I use an orbital sander with 80 
 grit paper - connected to a 12 - 15 gal shop vac to grind down to near the 
 gell coat. A shop vac hose is made to fit over the exhaust port of most 
 orbital sanders and does a very good job of collecting the sanding 
 residue.


 good luck!

 I find a flat scraper (such as http://bit.ly/emY8vD), frequently
 sharpened with a file, works about the best of anything I've tried.
 It's still a LOT of work.
