Removing Spray Paint From a JetSki

[mostexcellentdude]

Father in law bought a pair of Kawi 750 couches from a junkyard on the cheap. One of them has a bunch of spraypaint work on the hood, seat, and plastic grab bar.

Anyone that's actually done this have a good recommendation on removing it? I can tell it's not well bonded because it's already flaking off in places.

As of right now, I'm looking at 'graffiti removers' like Goof Off, Goo Gone, or Krud Kutter from the hardware store. There's also a product called 'Motsenbocker's Lift Off' on Amazon that looks intriguing. Not trying to spend a ton of time or money because its just an old single carb 750ST.

I had an HX someone spray bombed all the purple black. I had success just brake cleaner and a roll of blue rags.

Paint no doubts gonna be hammered underneath anyway. I'd just go nuclear tbh

Assuming standard spray paint without clear... Let alone clear with hardener. Tends to come off pretty easy.

Yeah the last one I did I used Berryman B12 carb cleaner and a lot of rages, the B12 will pretty much clean it right off .

This is helpful, thank you! The previous owners of my blaster rattle can painted it flat black. while they did a decent job the paint is soft and any little bit of fuel spilled on it makes a mess.

The last one I did was on a 650SX , same deal they rattle canned it flat black.

One more thing you can buy the Berryman B12 in liquid form, which would probably work better for what you are doing here . For really stubborn paint soak a rag with it and lay it on the spots.

Until you mentioned it I didnt even know there was a spray! Dad always used it in liquid form.

Thats not a bad price..

I used this stuff a few times and it worked really well. I've pretty much only spray painted my ski and changed the color a few times.
