Fred, My boat ran about $1500 for removal of paint down to the gelcoat. The surface was “paint ready” after a good wipe down.

Re: Stus-List ice or soda blasting
Switch to a high quality ablative bottom paint. Then you can take the residual paint off when you haul out every 3 years or so and have the bottom pressure washed.

Re: Stus-List ice or soda blasting
Fred Rather than soda blasting buy a paint scraper and some blades and go out to your boat and scrape the old coatings off at the bow. Do a 1 sq ft section. Once you have completed one sq ft and then sanded that down to gel coat with 120 grit sandpaper only then go in to your office and call someone to soda or dry ice blast your boat. I think you will be much more encouraged to go the blasting route From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Fred Hazzard via CnC-List Sent: Friday, October 24, 2014 12:43 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List ice or soda blasting I am looking for opinions on ice or soda blasting to remove multiple layers of bottom paint.

Re: Stus-List ice or soda blasting
Sanding with a disc sander requires skill. If you're not careful you will tilt the sander and gouge or scallop the hull. Use at least a 6 sander and a soft pad. Maybe look to rent a rectangular DA sander made by Hutchins. The pad is about 12 x 3 inches. Dennis C.

Stus-List ice or soda blasting
Fred The contractor that 'dry ice blast' our boat in 2006 gave us a dealhe was trying to drum up business by demonstrating how quick and effective his process was. The regular price for our CC 32 was about $1,600 CDN.we got it done for half that total cost.a deal we could not refuse. There were multiple layers of Interlux paints plus some recent VC 17 over 22 years by the original owner. The dry ice blasting removed everything down to the white gelcoat in less than 5 hours including the keel and rudder. The antifouling paint that came offf the bottom fell to the ground like ground pepper. When he finished, I had a shop vacuum and had it cleaned up in about 15 minutes. The last time I scrapped the bottom of a boat was 1991.a friend's CC 33 MKII that were reading for a Marblehead race. That was last time I scrapped the bottom of a boat and it will remain the last time I ever scrap/sand anti fouling paint from a boat. Unfortunately for the contractor, his dry ice blasting process did not impress many club members...he got a few orders but I have not seen him back at the club. I do not understand why boat owners choose to pay similar prices or more to have their bottoms cleaned with all the hazards associated with scrapping/sanding when soda blasting and dry ice blasting is perfectly safe, quick and extremely effective. I would choose dry ice blasting over soda blasting because you don't have the mess left behind with soda blasting and it can be cheaper.
