I picked up a 1956 Evinrude 10 H.P> outboard the other day, but unfortunately someone thought it would look better with a light spray of camouflage paint. Does anyone know of a good way to remove just the ugly paint and get back to the original? Luckily he didn't spray it very heavy and didn't spray anything under the cover.

If I can find something to work on this, then I'll probably try it on my 28 Phaeton also and maybe my 29 Tudor. My 28 was painted black over the original gunmetal blue back in the mid 50's. My 29 Tudor was painted a very ugly green over the original rose beige.
