What I used to strip my 32 was a wide wood chisel kept very sharp with a bench grinder. then a powerful orbital sander. It worked very well

I'm heading back to Stanley in Bonnie this weekend would love to see how you get on with it and what you decide to use etc…

Dilunet used to be the paint stripper theta was marketed for use on GRP... it is caustic soda based...... takes it's time and is expensive. I used it to strip the foredeck and side decks on a 22 foot boat..... total cost about £40-£50. Time taken - 3 weekends.

If you want to remove all the paint without sanding..... you may find it becomes a career and you will give up before it is done.
There are companies that specialise in damage free paint removal using a blast system... The Farrow system is one, there are others involving dry ice and all sorts of wizardry. Expect to pay a few £1000 and have a bit of cleaning up after!!!

Yea Roger, the eyesore at Stanley lol. I think we spoke brielfy, we're you kind enough to leave me some antifoul? Trouble is, I dont think sanding down and repainting is gonna give a smooth enough surface. Its got about 9 layers of paint peeling off, and I think if i try painting over it, its gonna be 'wobbly'. What you reckon?
