3M makes a type of rubber wheel you put in a drill and use to rub off adhesive 
lettering.  Apparently they work well.

Google "3M Stripe Off Wheel"  There are videos out there showing how they work. 
 They use them at work to strip decals off municipal vehicles, including police 
cars, before we auction them off.  Some of these vehicles have had those decals 
on for more than 10 years and they come right off.  You can still see where the 
decals had been, but only because the original paint is in better condition 
where the decals were, protecting it.

Subject: Stus-List Re: Glassing Over Instrument Holes Through Double Bulkheads

I had a look at that video - not a bad approach,  would add that itā€™s easier to 
layup the disks and other patches each onto a sheet of waxed paper then lift 
that into place rather than lifting the messy epoxy patch itself.  If you are 
making 4 patches, stack 4 sheets of waxed paper in your layupboard before you 
start.   Put the precut glass in the stack too, you avoid handling things with 
sticky gloves.     Itā€™s also easier to lay up multiple layers on the 
board/paper than doing one at a time.
When I updated the instruments on Windstar I replaced two B&G displays with one 
ray marine, leaving one hole.  I elected not to fill the extra hole but made a 
plexiglass cover the same shape and footprint of the new instrument.  Itā€™s 
ready should I wish to add a second display,  it looks fine to me and was a lot 
less work.

Remember also that epoxy will stick to polyester but the reverse isnā€™t true - 
should you wish to use gelcoat to finish the repair you should bear this in 
mind.  Iā€™ve always felt that once you start painting the deck or mixing 
materials you were heading down a slippery cosmetic slope.

Another option, if it makes sense both inside the boat and outside in the 
location where the instruments are coming out, is to install a small port 
(window).

Subject: Stus-List Glassing Over Instrument Holes Through Double Bulkheads

Listers-

Grenadine is getting an instrument system update this year and, as part of 
that, Iā€™ll eventually want to glass over previous instrument holes in the aft 
cabin wall.

Last night I watched this video 
https://youtu.be/T4OHQDs8NKk<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FT4OHQDs8NKk&data=04%7C01%7C%7C154aa35421944e08ab6a08d9051b4584%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637546436952310331%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=hrW4hgDoVd%2BdrmM61sMkZKRejZEU%2Bf27zllcUBBCs38%3D&reserved=0>,
 which is good, but seems to assume only a single bulkhead - i.e. the ā€œlinerā€ 
inside the cabin is not there, or is cut away (such as in the video) providing 
access to the inside of the fiberglass cabin wall.

Does anyone here know how to neatly glass over the hole in both the exterior 
wall and the interior liner?  If thereā€™s no good / easy / neat way to do it, 
Iā€™ll follow the video above for the exterior wall, then just cover the hole in 
the liner with a screwed-on piece of teak.

Thanks,
Randy
