my wife and i are gonna repaint our 14 jon, but the paint that is on there from prior owner is ugly, thick, and peeling.. and under that paint is a (looks like)profesionally done paint job. nice and shiney. we plan to remove ALL paint to bare aluminum and seal it with gluv-it, around all the grommets and such, and then primer it and paint it. we bought all the needed materials, paint, primer, sealer and marine tex( for a few small holes and such).. my question is this, WHAT THE HECK IS THE EASIEST/FASTEST WAY TO STRIP OLD PAINT?<br /> i have been using heavy duty stripper/ cleaner for cement, metal , and marine finishes from my local hardware store and using a 12000 rpm angle grinder with paint stripping wheel. just wanna know if i am already doing this the best way or if any of the super guru's out there have any secrets?thanks in advance
