Just a hint, if you use a 3M wheel, make sure the drill is turning the correct direction! I made it through half of one letter and the wheel unscrewed itself and of course fell overboard. I removed the rest of the name with a plastic scraper and a heat gun. James Delaney C&C 38 Mk II Oriental, NC
PS if anyone wants a barely used 3M wheel your welcome to mine, you just have to dive 7' down, right behind my transom to get it! ----- Original Message ----- From: Dennis C.

If it is vinyl you want a "stripe eraser". There are a couple of brands around, I bought one at Noah's on the west side of TO a while back and it makes removal painless and non destructive. My boat had vinyl over awlgrip. Auto supply places also stock 'em, they are for removing pin stripes among other things. stripe eraser Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 Halifax, NS On 2013-03-28 7:24 PM, Stevan Plavsa wrote: Thanks all.
