Another possiblity is have it blasted with walnut husk. It's gentle enough not the damage the panels and they can remve one coat at time, a good operator gets a finish that's ready for tack rag and sray over with a new clear coat, al long as the paint under neither is still good. A new coat of colour then the clear over (it probably COB, Clear over base) and often a gloss coat instead of the COB finish looks a lot better anyway.

Thanks Bruce, Fancy saying stay from Dotty. Now what trouble could a sweet old lady like her cause......

Wilbor, nightmare of a job but I have to admit I did enjoy it now looking back. Some good days some were a waste even bothering unpacking the tool box.

Bernie, Started out as a quick tart up and hit the road. Then started looking at the US Gin palaces and talking to Busman.... that's when things started going mad. Would I do it again, not bloody likely. Bride has said if I do its divorce time.... Hmmm looking around for another...Lol.
