Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum and recently an owner of my first supra, its a 2008 supra worlds edition and I'm looking to remove the decals off the hull. the previous owner must have applied a clear coat sealer border to the edges of the decals around the whole boat, ive done tons of research on restoring and polishing gel coat, but there is a 1 inch border of clear coat on the edge of the decals and 1 inch directly on the gelcoat, it appears to have been applied with a brush, ive tried a little bit of wetsanding with 1500 grit on a small corner of the decal and it appears to still show even after cutting it down, I really want to put the 59' supra badge on it like the newer models but don't want to damage the gel coat in the process, I'm also in a small town in northern Alberta and the nearest gel coat and or marine shop is over 2 hours away, I wont have the time to take it anywhere during the very small wakeboarding season we have, hope somebody has some suggestions or knowledge on this..
here are some pics
thanks!
