Anybody got a recommendation for a good, safe paint stripper for removing the old paint from various fiberglass tanks?

Penton tanks are gel-coated, I believe.   Do you want to remove painted added to the tank?

I have used exclusively Captain Lees Spra'-Strip for Corvette fiberglass as it will not hurt gel coat and does a good job. Mike

I usually buy it directly at a car show or swap meet, but you can go online and get it. or from Mid America Designs. Just do a search on captain lees spra-strip. Mike
