For guys that have added Gatorstep before it was a factory offering, what is the best way to remove the non-skid from the swim platform, transom and walk-through??

I have a kit on the way with one of Gatorstep's new colors....Electric Blue over Black in the Cascade pattern. The Electric Blue on my black deck is gonna look sick and I got permission from Rick T. to use the Moomba logos :o :cool:

SeaDek has some pretty good how-to videos on the subject either on their website or YouTube - that's what I used to remove the OEM platform pad from my OBV.

SeaDek videos were amazing. Step by step. Used it to take off and replace mine last year. Very straightforward instructions.

Thanks Mike! SeaDek had some great videos on removal and installation.

So are you considering using the eraser thing that they pimp in this video?

I need to replace part of one of the pieces on my front deck - I got a little abrasion when my younger brother decided to pull up 100' of anchor rope by dragging it over my $200 piece of GatorStep... Hopefully I can just get the piece that I need and save some moolah...

I'm not sure what the eraser is (maybe a new addition to the videos?), but I just used a plastic putty knife

I hadn't seen the video you referenced but the 3M eraser is interesting. In the vid I saw they soaked a rag with mineral spirits and laid over glue residue for 5 mins, then scraped it off, then went back over it with acetone.

You can order just the front deck: http://www.gatorstep.com/online-store/MOOMBA-CRAZ-2016-to-2018-p81907640 ($114)
