Message	autos, boats, metal, wood, etc. only took one application, used a putty knife to slide the old paint right on off. then a toothbrush to get between the cracks. worked great, but USE GLOVES. that stuff got on my arms a few times and i couldn't even finish spraying it before i had to run and wash it off, burned like hell....
