John you can always try a small patch as a test....

The wings I was working on were finished in IMRON which is a PU paint
and softer than Gel.

This is useful information that wasn't in the article; in fact, it
mentioned gel goat was being removed. Were the cracks and peeling in
just the Imron, or also in the underlying gel coat? If they were also in
the gel coat (I'm assuming the Grob started life with gel coat), it
sounds like they were bad enough to require refinishing, not just a
light sanding and polishing.

Does anyone know if sanding Imron presents any health hazards different
from sanding gel coat?
