cleaning anti foul paint
Submitted by laza g on Sun, 2008-07-06 21:32
Hi
just doing up an old mercruiser leg and it has been painted with anti-foul. I thought I could get it off with a wire brush on a drill but it just seems to polish it. Has any one had any luck with other cleaning methods say chemicals etc.

and we always used high pressure water guns.

At BIAS marine I found some anti foul paint stripper and with a high pressure water blaster they seem to remove the anti foul paint well.
Thanks
