do you mean pulling off the glass to get just the foam??
|
You should be able to use a heat gun to get it to start peeling. Maybe even try a hair dryer at first.
|
just paint it and then it will be blank
|
The only way to get an actual "blank" deck (white/colorless) is to paint it... the graphics are permanently printed onto the top and bottom sheets, and underneath them is just fiberglass. The best you're gonna get it just painting it.
|
Kind of off topic but the layer with the graphics is pealing off of my fish. ANy way to fix that?
|
I have an old LF Squirt that the graphics came off of. Plain white top
|
Lightly sand the top and hit it with some primer. Then you can spray paint it and make it nice and ghetto without worrying about paint chips in your boat.
|
I've peeled the topsheet off of a substance. Its basically just a big plastic sticker. Once its off you've got a perfectly white, plain top.
|
Here's a few shots of a board that the graphics peeled off. <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/326361.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/326362.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR>

so is it the consensus that lf boards will peal pretty easy and have a white top deck? what about others? cwb, gator, hype?
|
I think the board in the photo is a cwb, so they must come off. I know older LF boards do
|
haha, Walt, I have a litmus that the graphics peeled off of as well.
