    Remove all of the decals best you can, then take a rag with wd-40 on it to remove the sticky let over residue. What I did was take the design of the decals and use them as a templete and used a razor to cut them out then painted over the decal and removed it.

    You don't want to sand you want to scuff (huge difference). I use red scotch brite pads. You can buy them at target or wal-mart. After you scuff it up wipe it down with rubbing alcohol on a clean cloth.

    Sure if wanted too. Not necessary though, user choice. You should scuff the bottom of the hull anyway, adds more speed.
