paint stripper

Post by mike1969 » Wed Apr 24, 2013 8:26 pm

The Dream project I purchased recently has a very heavy coat of paint that I want to strip. Using an electric sander with 80 d paper and it barely touches it.
I really don't want to have it sand blasted. I just wondered if anyone has used any type of liquid paint stripper.

I've used Klean-Strip Low Odor Aircraft Remover with excellent results. Just follow the instructions on the can. I believe I got it at Auto Zone.

I know this is a little late but for those who read this in the future. I use Jasco premium paint and epoxy remover gel type. I have tried alot of things but yet this is by far the best. Even the hardest powder coatings are removed with little to no effort.

I'm having a hell of a time stripping my rattle can job from my Dream.

Used both Klean Strip aircraft remover and Rustoleum aircraft remover. It barely bubbles, takes a ton of scrubbing with a metal brush to get it to come off.

Not sure why this time it's so difficult, the first time I stripped the factory paint it took next to nothing to clean that paint off, just water and a few minutes in the sun.
