Paint Stripping (Read 83 times)

[kenydat]

I have been postponing the restoring of my PA10 for a while now. Last weekend I realized I need to start working on it or it will soon be a heap of rust or a village of rats(they have started eating up wires!) I need to beat these two devils.

I wish to do paint stripping but do not have access to any king of blasting. So my only options are paint stripper, the angle grinder wheel and the wire wheel stuff.

Another thing, I have to do this myself at my own pace as engaging someone else will be expensive and they may (most of the time they) do there own stuff but most important I wish to stop the rust from eating up my Datsun and forcefully evict the rats!

I will be stripping the paint by sections, my question is how do I stop the stripped sections from rusting before I finish stripping the whole shell?

you'll wanna get paint back on it pretty fast. when i stripped the 280C i had to do that in sections and that was with two of us on it every evening.

we used an etch primer then high build. and did it as quick as poss. you could also use a epoxy primer that should do the job of both and be harder wearing should you have to leave it in primer for a while.

best thing is to talk to your paint supplier as they will be able to advise you on what products they sell.
