[QUOTE="AZSunDevil, post: 438539, member: 22381"] Man oh man have I got my money's worth out of that Orange Nyalox Brush you recommended. I bought the cup brush (2.5") from amazon https://www.amazon.com/Dico-541-780-21-Nyalox-2-Inch-Orange/dp/B00004YYD1/ref=pd_sim_469_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00004YYD1&pd_rd_r=JWVFDCEDQ0AEP21RSY9F&pd_rd_w=m3DNQ&pd_rd_wg=Toj9I&psc=1&refRID=JWVFDCEDQ0AEP21RSY9F I also tried the much more expensive Angle Grinder version of the orange brush to see if it would speed things up but it leaves melted plastic/rubber marks on the hull so just creates more work than it does solving problems. The drill version of the orange brush paired with my $40 Lowes corded Black & Decker drill (1500-2000rpm?) seems to do the trick just fine. It's just tedious work. Entire exterior of hull is completely stripped. Also stripped the gunwale. Aircraft Remover and a 3100 PSI Pressure Washer would probably work faster but I like the brush swirl marks the Nyalox leaves. I'm still undecided on the interior the paint in there is pretty chalky. When I hit it with the cup brush, it throws paint dust everywhere. I'm going to try to wash it and scrub it with a scotchbrite pad but if it still has a chalky residue the next day I think I'm going to be forced to strip the entire interior as well. I don't want to throw all of the effort and money away by having new paint flaking off in a year or less due to poor substrate. [/QUOTE]
