panel stripping ?
 
whats the best thing to use to strip the paint of a silvia wing. Preferably without sanding which would take ages.

:cool:

Paint stripper? Something like Nitromox.

northerner 07-09-2009 17:57

do you just paint it on and leave it to do its business???

umpkin 07-09-2009 18:01

it tells you on the tin, but i think you paint it on and leave it for about 15 mins, then scrape it off, you may even be able to wash it off.

Ronin 07-09-2009 18:08

As far as I remember you paint it on leave then scrape off as it softens the paint it comes off like normal paint when you use stripper on it. But yes the instructions are on the tin.

Marvellous! I am stripping my wings after I had one welded slightly due to the tin worm. I just want to get them back to metal so to prime them up ready a full respray

Nitromors


Paint it on and leave it to dry for 5 mins,then do another layer and leave for 10 mins. Then use a scraper and a wire brush attachment on a cordless drill. Well thats what worked for me anyhow.

Nitromors YUK, really messy and hurts like hell if it splashes on you.

Brake fluid will strip it like hot butter 1,000,000,000,000 times faster (enough noughts there):D
