I found a shop with Aircraft Stripper. They've got 12oz aerosol, pint, and gallon buckets.

My 69 Skylark has 2, maybe 3 coats of paint. I'm gonna get some of this stuff and get after it this weekend.

This stuff has to be toxic! Any personal warnings, techniques, tools, or tricks or the trade that any of you picked up by experience are pearls of wisdom that I'd gladly inherit.

That's about it. Catch you later.

ps - how much should I buy?

There are a few things I can say...
1. This is REAL nasty stuff! It will BURN you INSTANTLY if you get it on the tender skin like your inner arm.

2. It is a HUGE mess, put down plastic sheeting to catch the droppings, it will stain the floor/driveway.

3. If it dries on something it is HELL to get off.

4. Use duct tape to keep it out of the door/fender/truck/hood seams. If it gets down in there, you'll wish you never saw it.

5. This is probably the most important......
DO ONLY ONE PANEL AT A TIME. COMPLETELY DO THE PANEL, NUTRALIZE IT, CLEAN IT, BEFORE GOING TO THE NEXT PANEL.

i chickened out on using that stuff. i'm just sanding off the last two coats of paint. one cheap coat painted directly over what appears to be the original.

good old fashion sanding.

Thanks,

Just as a follow-up note, the manufacturer of any industrial chemical like this is required to print up and distribute to users a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) on the product. The MSDS gives the chemical name, health hazards, protection required, flammability levels, etc. Sometimes local dealers don't keep the sheets on hand, but the manufactruer will have them.
