aircraft stripper got most of the paint, down to resistant patches here and there...I'm using very fine steel wool to wipe after the stripper, and little brass brush work. I think I'll go back to Jasco for these last bits. Stripper can is pretty much used.
Dr. Delton, glad to know I'm not doing anything wrong with letting the Jasco dry.
How can you tell if you're looking at paint or powdercoat?
Also, i really like the bronze-ish primer (I think it's primer). It reminds me of the clear-coated Bombadil from Rivendell. I'd love to be able to reapply it and clear coat over it...if I can figure out what it is!
