[QUOTE="stone4140, post: 175677, member: 916"] Stripping paint in the winter in a single car garage is a great way to spend a day :---) After a couple hours of work we were able to get down to either bare metal or primer or in some cases paint but very well adhered paint. If it was summer I think I would go to bare metal everywhere with stripper but wire wheeling an old boat somewhat freaks me out because i have read they put a whole lotta lead in old marine paint and I have a kid and a pregnant wife. So I spent a good part of the day cleaning after as well. I Think I am going to replace the transom before priming and painting. The transom is full of so many screws and bolts that I feel like it would be pointless to prep it and then go at getting the transom out after. I also am planning on taking the splashwell out not only to make getting the transom out easier but I may just keep it out and put a casting deck in that area. Any see any problems with doing that???
