It depends on how old the nail varnish remover is.

I'd be using SP systems Ultravar 2000 two pack for the mast. And they
have a range of thinners that will get rid if what ever you need it to.

This is how I did my Cherub mast (from an old RS600) and I cannot say how nasty it was beforehand...it had actually sat in the bottom of the lake for a few months and was totally unrecognisable as carbon!

Scraped the crap off with a paint scraper, rubbed down with wet and dry (carfeully!) and cleaned any residue off with SP Solvent C (and washed down thouroughly with water afterwards).  For varnish, use International Perfection 2 pack, it has about 7 times the UV resistance of a single pack varnish and is very tough.

Looks the D's B's too, what do you think??
