Paint stripping

[len]

Hi
I am looking to have a couple of TR6 wings stripped , I have given these wings to a firm in Essex who have messed me about for 6 weeks so I need to move on and find someone else really. They were going to use a burn method rather than chemicals.
Anyone know someone
Big point.... I am in Kent !
Thanks

can't you just buy a tin of paint stripper and do it yourself, would be a lot less hassle and a damn site cheaper!

Hot air gun will do the trick I stripped a complete car with one

I would be careful applying too much heat as a fear of warping metal, I guess they know what they are doing anyway..

they way I do it is paint stripper as much as possible, then clean with a rag/thinners to get excess off then 120 grit on a D/A then re-wipe with thinners to be sure. any stripper left on before paint and the paint won't go off..

When using hot air gun don.t stop to often once you have built up some heat just keep moving on not to many tea breaks

Thats what I found when doing my Stag. Might as well use baby oil....

the stuff from Frosts is supposed to be OK

Ask a body shop what paint strippers they use..
The standard stuff from auto shops are pretty naff, get the industrial strippers sold to the industry.

Tried this years ago, big difference.
