+2 Langley!!
Sometimes it's even cheaper for them to do it because if you're a noob it will take you longer than a pro, costing more money. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Aircraft stripper is the most amazing thing I've ever seen/used. Wear gloves cause it will burn your skin...what type of gloves? I have no friggin idea cause they will eat through rubber and nitrite gloves.

Use Talstrip Aircraft Stripper, its about $30 for a good size jug..less if you have a discount. I double up plastic gloves too incase i do get some on one hand i can tear it off quickly without worrying about the burning. I just finished using it on my aluminum louvers and it worked fine....Sandblasting might actually cause pitting but im not %100 on that.

If it's just a case of changing colour and it's not powdwer coated, go for the stripper.
