Like Gary said, use a 3M Stripe Off wheel and a drill. It was recommended by the guy that painted my boat and it really works. Took my cove stripe off quickly and completely with no damage to underlying paint. It's just a big round gum eraser. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA On Tue,

Use a 3M Stripe off wheel. See here . It is safe for Awlgrip and gelcoat. It sounds scary, but it is much easier and safer than a heat gun.

Even if the car battery is dead and I push start the car it doesn’t severely overcharge itself. The battery chemistry controls the charge rate and it only can physically draw so much power. Take a look here: http://www.eastpennmanufacturing.com/wp-content/uploads/Deka-Dominator-Gel-Marine_RV-Flye

Joe, Your car battery does not "explode" (or more appropriately "get damaged") because it is not very deeply discharged between cycles. The battery voltage quickly reaches 14.4v (because that is what car regulators are set at) and then maintains 14.4v by varying the current depending on the elect

Andy, Thanks but I speak of overlaying the stripes/stars and not the name and hailing port. It seems that getting the striping out of the recesses will be much harder than the flush surface name/hailing. Did you remove the striping with scraper and heat gun/hair dryer as well? David F. R

Batteries have an acceptance curve. You can see a plot of amps absorbed at a given discharge state and charge voltage that assume that the capacity of the charging source is infinite. The idea that the batteries absorb whatever the alternator can produce is a common one, even though it is wrong
