I've found that this stuff works a lot better than other aircraft stripper.
Thanks man, I will have to try that in the near future.

Ha, I actually made sure I was in a well ventilated area. It was hot yesterday when I did the stripping.
i thought the object was to let it air dry and apply more coats of the gel.

What i would do is take the gel version and apply it with paint brush and then let it sit the 10 or 20 min it needs. After that i would take a plastic razor blade and scrape the shit off.
That was the exact procedure I did, like I stated in the original post, 3-4 coats of crappy paint take a toll over the years.
It's all good though, with your guy's help I was able to remove a huge amount of gunked up crap.

I also wanna say please use latex gloves, the aerosol version of this stuff blew back from wind, and nitrile reacted and started burning hand
Ended up using the gel version, to prevent the wind blowing back at me.

I wore several layers of gloves too. Even after a little while the latex ones start to burn.
Thank for the tips guys, I went ahead and used some heavy duty, thick rubber gloves I had from work. Only complaint is, I used a paint brush and some small dots would hit my skin and freaking burn.

I was expecting better results but this will do for now, as I'm gonna have the lips professionally polished. :D
No problem! Even though you said he used it already its the best shit out there. I've had stuff not give up easily and it just needs to be done layer by layer it sucks but only way unless you wanna sit there and sand it all off
