I wish I had the room to do it my self. Painted lots of cars and have the equipment just no place to do it...I'd prefer to strip the Zep off before it's sanded.ScottG wrote:B.O. Plenty wrote:
I have the same question. I used Zep last year. While the results were good at that time, my fiberglass cap has continued to fade and turn colors. It looks as bad as ever and I would like to bring it in and have it painted. How do i get the stuff off so the paint will stick??

Don't bother removing it. The shop will be sanding the whole area down and priming it before painting.
BTW, you're going to love the new painted cap. Had mine done two years ago and it's gorgeous, durable and stays shiny. I wax it occasionally so the bugs come off easier but he new finish (two part epoxy paint) is tough as nails.
And the price to do that was how much $$$?
