[QUOTE="Steph Boeker, post: 497604, member: 32953"] Okay, long story short : 2 kinds of stripper each worked to some weak degree on the outer 3 layers of paint, but never did anything on some type of glaze looking base or foundation they used 1st on the aluminum. I used a stainless cup brush on my grinder but that did even less except did remove around rivets well. Next I used paint eaters (4-1/2" hard scotch bright type discs) but they were hard on the alum. so I scratched that idea. I finally tried my palm sander w/ 80 grit paper. That actually worked the best. I had 33 yrs in carpentry and wouldn't you know I'd try regular sanding last ?? (@$%^&*) I'm in the middle of finishing now.
