Aircraft paint remover worked great for me. Don't do it in the sun and brush it on one way. If you back brush it, you lose 50% of the removing power. P. ... ...
Well, it's that time again. Carolyn and I will be on the Houseboat in the middle of nowhere ( Bob Dunham and Grumpy can fill you in on this) from Friday AM...
There are companies out there that sand blast. You can remove the paint from it by taking it to someone who "plastic bead blasts". Sand is too abrasive but...
I installed a Titan rack on my tower about a month ago. It works great. See Lance Reinsma. He can probably hook you up with a good deal. His e-mail is...
I used an orange gel type paint remover, painted the foil with the gel and then wrapped it in a plastic bag and let it sit overnite. The paint just wiped off...

Rob, How did you do it? I strip it in under 2 hours and had no recovery time. The orange gel and the bead blasting sounds the best. ... From: Rob...
My skyski pro this year seems to be getting to much lift.I cant even get the foil to go down? Is this a shim problem if so what foil and were do I shim? I...
Yep, in cold water the molecules are closer together (higher density). This creates more lift than warm water :) dave@... I'll send you a note on how...

No I meant how did he do the process of stripping. I know about Dale Hollow as I have skied there. That have to be the toughest water on foils. I hear it even...
Foilin' and fishin'... Just don't try to do both at the same time. As sharp as the new wings and tee bar are you may just fillet them while it's still...
A black powder AC is still a black powder AC. With all of the improved foils out there you'd be better off selling yours "as is" and upgrading. I was in the...

I still think the best way to get rid of the Powder coat on an old AC is to trade it in on a SkySki. No busted knuckles, no messy gels, no clean up, and big...
Well, we are talking 1994 here. Back then that's the way everyone did it. I suspect some "aircraft paint strippers" were better than others. A friend of mine...
Loosen the back wing & slide a dime between the back of the back wing & the t-bar. Then tighten things back up. You'll notice a good amount less lift in the...
While I understand that the newer foils fly a lot better than the old ACs did, I think some of the newer riders are coming from a different viewpoint. Bottom...
Thanks for the advice I went and bought some paint remover gel at Lowes and already got the powdercoat removed. I am now working on getting it polished....
