My pressure washer is a Briggs and Stratton 2200 psi, 2.2 gpm unit.  If I remember correctly, it only took two full yanks of gas.  This only worked because my yard owner didn't care as long as I put a tarp down.  I'm not at all sure how much runoff I had.  I tried to catch as much as I could.

I always wondered if this would work. How many PSI was your pressure washer?

The last time that I did Corsair (1970 Redwing 35), I used my pressure washer and a turbo nozzle. Stripped the paint off without affecting the barrier coat. I put down a tarp to collect the bottom paint (Micron CSC), but the yard didn't really care.  I got the tarp from Harbor Freight and just tossed it after I was done.  Paint came off pretty easily once I got the technique down.  A light sand afterwards and two coats of Micron CSC and I was back in business.  I tried the pressure washer on the advice of the yard owner.

I need to have several/many coats of bottom paint removed (its starting to seriously flake off) and am considering soda blasting as both faster and possibly cheaper than the 60 hours of labor that the
yard estimates it would take to sand it off.(~$5000!).
Opinions and experiences of the list are welcome before I proceed with it (or stay with the sanding method).
Thanks,
