Paint stripper on fiberglass
I'm looking for a paint stripper that's safe to use on fiberglass bodies. My cart looks like somebody painted a couple coats of latex on with a roller. I'd like to get a good portion of this off while the body is still on. Anyone have any recommendations? Cart is shown in the thread linked below.

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
I used soy strip on a plastic outboard engine cowling and it worked pretty good without any plastic damage. Got it off the interweb.

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
What ever you use make sure you neutralize it well afterwards so whatever stripper that remains in the fiberglass does not cause bubbling and blistering later... I bought a c3 corvette where this happened. What a mess I ended up stripping the paint with a razor blade and doing a decent amount of body and paint work to correctly the previous owners mistakes.

As I remember this is what the product looked like.

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
I got an ezgo body and front cowl that someone painted it with what looks like bed liner spray . I can see some hunter green so I know what color it used to be. I wonder if this product you are talking about will remove this ugly grey looking stuff ?

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
I don't know, all I can tell you is it did a good job removing marine paint. Buy it and try it!

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
There are so many hunter green Ezgo bodies around that I wouldn’t even attempt to remove it. Pitch it and get another one.

Re: Paint stripper on fiberglass
I would definitely check market place. Being 20 miles from Ezgo this area is flooded with parts. Couple years back I watched my dealer buddy pitch 50 bodies in the dumpster along with tops and a bunch of other parts. He does a lot of rebuilds for Ezgo so when leases are coming in there are a bunch of carts moving through his shop.. Don’t think he delivers to Bama though..
