: Hi Douglas,
: In spite of what 3M says, there are some products that may help
: de-bond the 5200 for a better cleanup. One that's been around a
: while is "Anti-Bond 2015" while a somewhat newer one
: is "Marine Formula". My experience with Anti-Bond is
: that is does work to a certain degree, making the 5200 somewhat
: soft and "gooey" but still involves a lot of scraping
: and elbow-grease. I have not used the Marine Formula but have
: talked to others who claim it is much better than the Anti-Bond.
: The Marine Formula is sold by Downwind Marine in San Diego who
: are a firm well respected by long distance cruising sailors
: (i.e., have enough credibility that I don't think they'd sell it
: if it didn't work reasonably well). Anyhow, you may want to have
: a look around the web to see what is being said about these
: products (and there may be other de-bonders for all I know) and
: of course you should small-area test anything like this to make
: sure it doesn't do something horrible to your epoxy, varnish,
: etc.

: Hope this helps.

Hello Steve, anything to make it easier is welcome in my shop. I will browse to find the 'Marine Formula' and will give it a try. Thnx Douglas
