Blast it with oven cleaner, that'll take anything off!

Gordon, not to say that someone would take you serious on this, but oven cleaner left on gellkote makes it porous then it absorbs water and blisters. Someone at northside did this on a new sailfish, pretty interesting.

I myself would try acetone, or aircraft remover, you will have to re-wax after, but it won't hurt the gell just my .02

Road paint is latex based and most thinners don't work well, try using a hair dryer, heat it up and it may wipe right off. if not use very hot water and a scotch brite pad.... should work without damaging the paint, the heat will remove the wax but no biggie right.....

Power wash it off. We had to do it at the shop when people ran it over on us and complained about it.
