[QUOTE="chasingomas, post: 1587520, member: 31094"] Searching for animal contentment; no regret for yesterday, no anticipation of tomorrow. Who knew existing would be this hard? Really proud of the progress. Just trying to pick at things as my energy slowly drains back. gonna keep stripping paint, then get to sanding. I got my technique for paint removal down. Here for posterity's sake. How to remove paint (interior): 0) clean area with water and very little simple green. 1) Lay AIRPLANE PAINT STRIPPER (only paint remover I found works easily and consistently) down thickly over desired area 2) Place saran wrap, or equivalent, down in strips over affected area; saran wrap will stick to remover, not metal 3) Using your hands, press lightly into the saran wrap, squishing the remover into the metal as much as possible. 4) Wait 45 mins 5) peel off saran wrap, 80% will come up with the saran wrap, the rest can be scraped off with the effort of blinking; if it not, the remover didn't get to it 6) clean up area with simple green and water; move on to next area. The hardest part is actuallly waiting for the remover, since it smells of sin and I can't do anything else in the car while I wait. Excited for that to be done so I can get to a part I love....Sanding. Hope everyone is well, or at least on the way towards it. [/QUOTE]
