[DML] Re: getting paint off

["SweatyEddy" <swetyedy@xxxx>]

Chris,
I used Jasco paint remover. Worked fine, took about a weekend of time
(including beer consumption), and cost about $20. You are taking a gamble
that there is no body work underneath or the price goes way up. I was
fortunate to have nothing wrong with mine.
