[QUOTE="richg99, post: 427904, member: 4376"] I don't know the answer about "will the wire brushing be good enough?"...but I agree that it should be. Also of interest, though, is the tiny metal particles that spin off of the wire wheel. If ANY of them remain, they will rust through your new paint. When I had Fiberglass sailboats, we used bronze steel wool, instead of regular steel wool, just to avoid the rusting issues. I guess I'd get some tack clothes and really rub down everywhere you wire brushed. richg99 [/QUOTE]
