I had no problem with the gel coat, I kept the drill boverned down to the slowest speed that still removed the pin stripes. (my stripes were 15 y.o. Seems to me that a heat gun on low and a little unscented nail polish remover would be much simpler and just as quick. |

The erase wheel just spun it off. It was similar to the plastic erasers used to take ink off mylar drawings (for those old enough to remember such things :-) ) |

And I still have my slide rule. :) Yeah, well, you have me beat by a few years. The taught us the basics of a slide rule in H.S. but they were up to (if I remember right) SR55 ny the time I graduated. I remember my older brother "having" to get a SR10 when he was attending Penn State. They started to allow them for tests, and a slide rule just wouldn't cut it anymore. My parents paid about $120 for it. |
