Good day,

I wanted to post this here and not in my vehicle thread as it is of general interest.

One of the body tubs on my CL70 is near being ready for paint removal.

As I see it, I can buy paint stripper and do it myself or send it out and pay for soda blasting, which I have been told is best for aluminum items. The tub is a composite structure with riveted components added.

I am concerned that if I use stripper it will wick in behind the laminations and bleed back out again at the primer / paint stage.

Some how I would prefer the stripper avenue as I can do it myself, pride and satisfaction in a task and hopefully lower cost, I am trying to be frugal and also make progress.

Can anyone give some comments please?

Thanks
