Paint Stripper on G-10

[nightowl13]

I am trying to follow Tyrkon's lead to strip a GC BATAC I just received.
It has a Tan blade and G-10 handle slabs, the Tan just to way to brown for my liking against the black G-10.
My question is, does the paint stripper affect G-10 or will it be the same as with Mircata, no damage caused?
Cheers for your answers.

The paint stripper will not harm the G10. G10 is highly resistant to many chemicals. Probably even more so than micarta.

I have not yet stripped my Badger Attack with G10 scales, but I did a RatManDu with black G10 this weekend. No problems. Just put a little WD40 on the handle and it was black as ever.

Sweet strip-job on that RatManDu. That really makes me want one to do the same. I have an original Bandicoot that is stripped and it looks good, but not that GOOD! Very nice work.

That RatmanDu came out nice!!!

I thought G10 was fiberglass set in Epoxy resin?

That is correct.

Nice job on your RatManDu HornDog. And thanks for your replies everybody. Cheers

Excellent question regarding G-10. I do not think I have ever owned/stripped a knife with G-10. Great work too HD.

Horn Dog, your RMD looks great. How smooth was the blade under the coating? In other words how much polishing/sanding did you have to do?
