I have had 2 experiences with SUP deck grip removal:

#1 I had a nice surf sup but the grip was really slippery (my excuse anyway) I left it in the sun for about 15-20min and pulled it off in about 5 pieces, a quick whipe with turps and it was perfect, ready for new grip....Too Easy (this grip was in perfect condition and NOT peeling anywhere)

#2 I bought a 2nd hand mal surf sup, the grip was falling apart, plus it is a really nice looking board and I wanted to wax it. So I put in the sun and started to peel......well about 50 billion pieces later i got it off.....but it left most of the adhesive behind. So thinners, scraper and the radio got it off.....oh and about 12-16hrs total...No lie!

I have done 6 or 7 regrips, 2 x 12fters (never again)

1 x board 8 ft with 2/3 length white grip the worst I have ever done lol.

Quotation for Regrip of Paddle Board:

ESTIMATE ONLY

1 x case Grange
1 x case Whytes and Mackays + 1 large container of ice
2 x cartons of Corona + 4 x large lemons presliced + Eskie + 4 bags ice

1 x trip to Mentawiis for 2 x adult + 3 x children (1st class return) 10 days

Duration: variable based on number of hangovers, number of times locked up for swearing or sent into rehab due to chemical absorbtion.

Estimate subject to change if the person I con into doing the regrip for me does not drink Corona
