So Im basically almost ready to launch my boat that I just got, I just went to my boat with a power washer and a orbit sander. I tried using the power washer to remove the bottom paint and it didnt do anything. So I started to sand it with 80 grit and all it did was smooth it out. It seems to be on there very well. As you can see in the pics that there are a few spots that are missing paint. Are these considered blisters? Would I be able to sand all the white spots and just touch up wherever it's missing paint? If I choose to just do a touch up what will happen to the hull? I'm getting so frustrated because I don't know what I'm doing and I was afraid to sand it down passed the black paint. What are my options to remove the paint? If I do sand it ,do I sand off all black paint down to white or sand it down to make it smooth so the new paint will adhere to the boat? Please help me before I loose my mind( I think I already have) lol
