oh yeah, what do you suggest is the most effective method of stripping the old paint? thanks.
Stripping on paint using gel type paint stripper...which is cheap and effective. Can get quite messy.
2 coats of industrial filler primer (save u from sanding it.)
2-3 coat of paint (any paint from hardware store should be finee..some hammer on paint is awesome)
2 coat of clear coat.
Tips: Dust free environment, 1 to 2 hrs between each coat.
Cheer,
